UV flatbed printers are a more common inkjet printing device. In the actual production process, the equipment is inevitably "out of temper".


How to avoid equipment failure as much as possible? Daily equipment maintenance is the only magic weapon.

Timely and effective equipment maintenance can reduce losses and extend the life of your equipment.

Now that you know the importance of equipment maintenance, why not learn with Xiaobian? The eight maintenance methods of UV flatbed printers, the content is pure dry goods!


Method 01

You must ensure that the UV flatbed printer has a stable working platform and do not place anything on top of the UV flatbed printer.


The printer must close its front cover when printing to prevent dust from entering the machine or other hard objects that hinder the movement of the printer car. It is forbidden to plug and unplug the printer cable. This will damage the printer's print port and the parallel port of the PC, which may even damage the motherboard of the PC. If the printout is not very clear, you can use the printer's automatic cleaning function to clean the printhead, but consume a small amount of ink. If the print is still not satisfactory after several consecutive cleanings, the ink may have run out and the ink cartridge needs to be replaced.


Method 02

Make sure the environment around the UV flatbed printer is clean.


Too much dust in the working environment can easily lead to poor lubrication of the guide shaft of the trolley, which hinders the movement of the print head during printing, causing inaccurate printing position or damage to the mechanical frame and crash. When the print head is not returned to the initial position and is turned back on, the printer first returns the print head to the initial position, and then the cleaning head operation is performed, so that unnecessary waste of ink is caused. The solution to this problem is to often wipe off the dust on the guide shaft and lubricate the guide shaft (use a better fluidity such as sewing machine oil).


Method 03

Before turning off the printer, return the print head to its original position (the printer automatically returns to the initial position when the printer is in the pause state). In order to avoid the waste of ink when the printer is re-cleaned at the next startup, the second is because the nozzle can be sealed by the protective cover at the initial position, so that the nozzle is not easily blocked.


Method 04

Ink cartridges need to be rectified frequently: Anyone with experience in printers knows that the printer will correct the printer after reloading the cartridge or replacing it with a new one to improve print accuracy and print quality.


Method 05

The ink cartridge should be exposed to direct sunlight at room temperature when not in use for a long time. Because the ink evaporates quickly in this environment, it is easy to cause the nozzle to clog. In addition, in the low temperature and humidity environment, the print head circuit and the ink are prone to problems.


Method 06

When the ink cartridge is not used, it is best not to remove it to avoid wasting ink or the printer's metering error.


Method 07

Be sure to follow the steps in the operation manual when replacing the ink cartridges. Pay special attention to the above operations while the power is on.


Because the ink cartridge is refilled after the ink cartridge is replaced, the process will not work in the off state and the printer will not be able to detect the reinstalled cartridge. In addition, some printers measure the ink capacity by using an electronic counter inside the printer (especially in the statistics of the amount of color ink used). When the counter reaches a certain value, the printer judges that the ink is used up. During the cartridge replacement process, the printer resets its internal electronic counter to confirm that a new cartridge has been installed.


Method 08

The grating strip of the UV flatbed printer should also be protected. Do not touch it with your hands. Do not let it stain with dust to prevent misalignment.
