Keep these Points in Mind to Effectively Avoid the Print Head Plug

The printing head plug has always been one of the frequent problems of inkjet printers. As long as the printing operation is not carried out for a long time, the nozzle is easy to be blocked, resulting in ink interruption and no ink output. What should we do to effectively avoid the printing plug?

Different printer types have different solutions. If it is an ink-jet printer with an ink bin, its print head is on the machine. If the print head is damaged due to the plug and needs to be replaced, the cost is high, so we must avoid the plug from the root. There are two main methods:

1. Replace the ink cartridge as soon as the printer alarms. When the ink cartridge is running out of ink, the printer will alarm and prompt to replace the new ink cartridge. Some people may feel that they are just running out of ink, and there is a little bit that can be used again. They don't care about this alarm and continue to use it until they can't print ink. This kind of behavior is not advisable! When the ink cartridge is empty, air will enter the print head and cause a plug! Therefore, we must replace the ink cartridge in time to avoid losing too much for too little.

However, if the plug is caused by air, you can try to clean the print head by "power on - power off - standing for 20 minutes". If the first attempt is fruitless, you can try again, but you must not do it for the third time, and repeat it at most once; If it's still useless, you can only find a professional master to repair it.

2. In a few cases, the problem of the ink cartridge itself will also lead to the plug. For example, when you install the ink cartridge, there is an error, resulting in the control valve where the ink cannot come out, so you must install the ink cartridge according to the operation instructions, and regularly check whether there is a problem with the ink cartridge, and replace the ink cartridge in time.

The second is an ink-jet printer with an ink cartridge. This kind of printer is generally a disposable nozzle, which is on the ink cartridge. When the ink cartridge is used up, the print head will be discarded together. How to avoid plugging during use? The air guide hole must be opened. Some users may forget to tear off the yellow label of the air guide hole. If they don't tear it off and directly print, the plug will also occur, so we must keep this in mind!

If it is inevitable that the print head is blocked by something, soak the print head of the ink cartridge with boiling water for ten minutes (only the print head part), soak the things inside soft and bubble, and then continue to use; Or replace it with a new cartridge.

These two types of inkjet printers have a very effective and simple way to avoid plugging, that is, frequent printing! Make sure to print at least once a week. Even if you don't print, you should switch it on and off at least once a week, because the printer will make a sound when it is turned on, that is, it is automatically cleaning the print head!
