Many people use the printer, but do not know how to maintain the printer, so Boyu Xiao Peng summarized the knowledge of printer maintenance, and now share it with everyone.
Horizontal Desktop Placement Printer Because the inkjet printer itself works, the printer must be placed in a horizontal plane. Tilting will not only affect the printing effect, slow down the nozzle operation, but also damage the internal mechanical structure. Do not place the printer on the floor, especially on carpeted floors. It is easy to get foreign objects or dust to fly into the machine.
Do a good job of dust-proof measures When you work on the printer, don't open the front panel. It doesn't look good when printing, that is, the nozzle is moving around, and the dust is blown into the machine. After printing, after half an hour of heat dissipation, immediately put on the dust cover and do not leave it in the room.
Turn off the machine before unplugging the machine. Before using the printer or moving it, do a permanent power-off. Turn off the printer power (if any), reset the nozzle and the ink tank cover, and then unplug the power cord and signal cable. . Prevents the ink from evaporating and does not easily damage the nozzle when it is moved.
Carefully install the support mechanism of the ink cartridges. The support mechanism can be very small. Be careful when installing new ink cartridges. According to the normal design, the ink cartridges can be installed with proper force. Do not push the brackets vigorously.
When cleaning the outside of the printer in a timely manner, it is necessary to clean it regularly. Do not wait until a thick layer of dust is accumulated. The outside of the printer can be wiped with a soft cloth dampened with water. The cleaning liquid must be a neutral substance such as water. Never use alcohol. The interior should be wiped with a dry cloth as much as possible, and it should not be in contact with internal electronic components, mechanical devices, etc.
The cleaning of the internal structure of the printer should not be done manually. The best way is to use the software-controlled print head cleaning program. Especially after adding ink, be sure to clean the print head to prevent the two inks from mixing and solidifying. In addition, if the print quality is degraded such as streaking, color reduction, etc., it is also necessary to clean the nozzle.
If the software cleaning method fails, it proves that the blockage is more serious. Usually, the printer has not been used for a long time or the process is interrupted, and the nozzle is not reset. Using a syringe against the nozzle, continuously pulling the pressure device, allowing the high-speed air stream to clean the nozzle and sucking out the remaining ink is a cleaning method that saves ink.
If the first manual cleaning method does not work, you are now ready to open the printer. Turn off the power first, unplug it, and completely disconnect the power. Disassemble the moving shaft and rotate the belt, then carefully pick up the print head and rinse it with distilled water. Then use a syringe and a soft hose to form a spray system that is inserted into the ink inlet for cleaning. Be extremely careful in both steps. Never let water get on the board. If you wet the board, you should blow it off with a hair dryer. Finally, replace it in the printer and execute the software cleaning program again to let the ink wash away the distilled water inside the nozzle.
Avoid heavy pressure on the printer Some people often place other objects on the printer, which may damage the printer's casing, and some small things will fall into the printer. Of course, drinks and teacups are forbidden.
If you put ink on it, you must use it because the color ink cartridge is expensive, users are reluctant to use it, but the file will bring you a lot of trouble. Each time the nozzle sprays the ink, there is always the remaining ink left nearby. The inkjet printer is often used. The new ink in the cartridge will wash away the last remaining ink, otherwise they will slowly solidify, causing the nozzle to clog. Even if no ink is used, the machine will automatically clean the nozzles at regular intervals, which will result in greater waste.
Whenever the ink is out of ink, replace it with a new one as soon as possible. Some people think that black ink is not needed for color printing. In fact, the color ink is not pure black, and the printer will report an error and cannot print.
Do not use a variety of inks Because the chemical composition of the inks used by various manufacturers is different, try to use the same brand, do not change frequently, so as not to cause damage to the ink cartridges and print heads. The ink cartridge has a certain life span, and the number of ink refills is not unlimited. Usually, the safe method is to replace it within ten times.
