Release Time:2012-06-22

How to extend the life of the barcode print head and improve the print quality, the barcode printer head is the most fragile and fragile device in the barcode printer. Like a car, it is a lossy product that will eventually be damaged. Daily maintenance and proper use can extend the life of the print head and ensure the quality of the print. Then we are in the process of using barcode printer. How to reduce the scratch of the barcode print head?

1. Always clean the print head and use a high-quality smooth and backed thermal transfer ribbon to reduce friction.

2. Minimize the print head pressure and print temperature.

3. Ensure that the ribbon width is wider than the label to prevent the exposed print head from being scratched by the label.

4. After the print head is contaminated by the thermal transfer ribbon, it will need high temperature, high pressure and high speed line setting values. The accumulation of contaminants on the printhead needles causes thermal transfer impediments which affect the quality of the printed image.

5. Gradual increase in contamination can degrade the print quality and look dull or damage the pins.

Improve the print quality of barcode printers to do the following three points:

1. Often do the print head maintenance.

2. Using our protective print head film can quickly and easily remove print head garbage accumulation.

3. The thermal transfer ribbon with back layer protection should be used. The ribbon should refer to the non-adhesive ribbon, which has static electricity dissipation and more lubricating effect.
