Do you dare to use heat transfer ink in autumn and winter? Correct guidance!

When the autumn and winter seasons alternate, the temperature changes greatly, resulting in obvious temperature differences in various regions. Thermal transfer inks may also change in the case of climate change, and some problems arise. The specific conditions are different, but most of them are caused by cold weather and dryness.

Temperature effect

When the temperature is lowered, the viscosity of the ink will increase, which will make the fluidity worse. The ink will be affected by the ink flowing during the operation, and the inkjet of the nozzle will be damaged, which will damage the piezoelectric ceramic inside the printhead and cause the printhead to fatigue. Road, frequent broken ink and other phenomena.
Recommendation: Increase the temperature to control the fluidity of the ink to achieve a better state of the ink.

Specific method
1. Add a temperature control device to the bottom of the print head to change the temperature, or add a temperature control device at the secondary ink cartridge and the main ink tank to change the temperature.
2. Keep the indoor printing temperature at 18-28 degrees.

Humidity effect

In winter, the temperature is low, whether it is heating or air conditioning, the relative humidity will drop (that is dry).

1. Impact on the nozzle/ink
First of all, the static electricity in the dry environment is high, which has great harm to the equipment. In the process of using the ink, it is easy to appear such as serious flying ink. Secondly, when the air is dry, the volatilization speed will increase, and the ink on the surface of the printhead will dry up quickly, causing the nozzle to clog. In the printing process, it is easy to express as flying ink, frequent disconnection and oblique spraying, etc. If the nozzle maintenance is not paid attention, the nozzle may be damaged.

2. Influence on print media
Drying also changes the material, making coatings or other chemical materials on some materials change to be incompatible with ink, and materials based on photo materials, such as paper, will dry in the case of drying. Some problems such as material warping and excessive ink absorption of the coating occur. If it is not solved in time, it will cause damage to the nozzle and motor.
Recommendation: Keep the indoor relative humidity between 55% and 80%, and the printing equipment should be grounded.

Printing device shutdown notice

1. The printer should be turned on once a day, and the nozzle is detected. If there is a broken needle, etc., the nozzle cleaning operation should be performed until the print head is normal to ensure the smoothness of the pipe and the wetness of the print head. The condition allows small color blocks of various colors to be printed. .
2. The printer is stopped for 3-5 days. In the off state, the printhead is removed, a special cleaning solution is dripped on the ink stack, the waste ink tube is clamped with a long tail clip, and then the printhead is moved to the ink stack to ensure the printhead and the ink stack. The seal between the two is intact.
3. The printer is stopped for more than 5 days. Please replace the ink cartridge with special cleaning solution at the end of printing, and clean it once or twice to ensure that the ink path and nozzle are cleaned.
