What are the ways to make the big size sublimation printer more durable?

The big size sublimation printer is both a fine mechanical device and a complex electronic device. It is equivalent to a mechanical plotter and a high-end computer. There are precision printheads in its internal structure, so avoid mechanical shocks and vibrations, as well as avoid dust from the air. Complex electronic components such as CPU, memory, and hard disks are not only sensitive to static electricity, but also avoid contact with moist air. In addition, the user's use and basic maintenance in use are also factors that determine whether the large-format inkjet printer can work normally and be used for a long time. Here are a few comments for the majority of users.

First, the big size sublimation printer is in the best working condition

Ink sublimation printers are relatively expensive and sophisticated instruments that must be made to work at their best when printed to produce beautiful, large-format color images. The important condition for keeping it in the best printing state for a long time is to operate according to the chapter and be diligent in maintenance. Although the use of large format inkjet printers is not complicated, users still need to develop the habit of strictly following the instructions to complete the operation.

1. To develop the correct switch machine habits

For the user, the switch is the simplest operation, but it is also the most important maintenance measure. There are many control buttons on the printer panel, and there is also a power switch. The power switch is not directly connected to the external power supply, but controls the external power supply through its own related control. The wide format inkjet printer has to perform system initialization every time it is turned on or off. These initialization tasks include positioning and resetting of the printhead and print paper, detecting whether the top cover of the printer panel is closed, filling the ink cartridge nozzle, and automatically cleaning the printhead. When the power switch is turned on by the printer, the system can correctly position the print head and the printing paper after initialization, and the system will automatically reset the print head and the printing paper after the system is turned off, which not only ensures the normal operation of the printer. Reduce the failure rate and eliminate the hidden troubles, extend the service life of the printer, reduce the cost of printing consumables and equipment maintenance costs, and greatly improve work efficiency.

2. Avoid abnormal shutdown

If the user forcibly turns off the power plug when the printer is powered on, the print head cannot be reset, and the top cover cannot be covered, which may easily cause the print head to be positioned. What needs to be noticed by the user here is that the heat sublimation printer has a large rack, light weight, and a roller. The mobility is very strong. When plugging in the power cord, it must be placed in a place that is not easy to touch, to avoid inadvertently causing The power is dropped instead of a normal shutdown.

3. How to extend the life of the print head

Try to use HP original ink supplies, because the quality and stability of third-party inks are quite different from those of original inks. The bad chemical composition in the ink can easily corrode the nozzle and cause damage.

If you do not use the printer for a long time, you can take out the print head for sealed packaging. The easiest way is to pack it in plastic wrap and store it in a low-temperature storage room such as a refrigerator.

If the nozzle orifice is blocked, you can first try to soak the surface of the nozzle with water, then wipe it clean (do not wipe the nozzle) and reload it into the machine. Print the printhead test page to determine whether the printhead is good or not and then discard it.

If there are some cleaning agents at hand, you can use these agents to soak them after using them in water. Because these soaking agents mostly contain ingredients that corrode the print head.

Second, provide a good environment for use

Large format sublimation printers have thousands of tiny nozzles on the large printhead. So many nozzles face the printed paper directly when printed, and are exposed when not in use. Since the size of the nozzle aperture is equivalent to the dust floating in the space, if the working environment of the printer is poor and the dust is large, the small nozzle is easily contaminated and blocked by dust. If the indoor humidity is too high, not only the expensive basic mechanical parts of the printer are easily rusted, but also the print head is difficult to ensure that it is not rusted. The temperature change of the working environment of the printer should not be too large. This is because the dye-sublimation transfer printer not only contains a large number of metal parts, but also contains a large number of engineering plastic parts, and the nozzle aperture is very thin, if the ambient temperature changes too fast, The thermal expansion of the part can cause excessive wear of the mechanical part, and variations in the size of the nozzle aperture can also affect print quality.

The specific skills are as follows:

1. The printer must be placed in a stable position, especially for large-format printers, which will have a rhythmic swing back and forth during work. It is best to use a level meter when placing them to prevent premature aging of mechanical parts.

2. The indoor temperature of the studio should be controlled between 15-25 degrees, and the temperature should be moderate.

Keep the print space clean, because in the working state, a large amount of static electricity is generated in the power supply part of the motherboard, which easily affects the normal operation of the circuit and the machine.

3. Printing equipment Because it is more or less dissipated in the work process, it is best to avoid storing the machine in some closed rooms.

4. Do not place the equipment very close to the wall, strictly speaking 20 cm away from the wall. Because most of the heat sinks are installed at the back of the printer, too close to the wall to dissipate heat can affect the operation of electronic components.
