Does the ink in the cartridge dry out easily? Attention! Your mode of use may be completely wrong!

The secret of using the cartridge correctly

Come quickly and see if your method of use is correct

Methods for storing unpacked ink cartridges

If the unpackaged ink cartridges do not need to be used,

do not open the ink cartridge packaging

to keep them as long as possible

The ink cartridge should be used according to the temperature indicated on the packaging box.

If the temperature is too low or too high,

it will affect the performance of the ink cartridge,

causing it to be impossible to print or the ink in the cartridge to evaporate too quickly.

Methods for storing previously opened ink cartridges

➊

For already opened ink cartridges,

they should be installed in the printer as soon as possible.

If the ink cartridge is placed outside the printer without protection,

This will speed up the drying of the ink cartridge nozzle.

➋

If the ink cartridge needs to be stored outside the printer,

you can place the ink cartridge in a plastic bucket with a tight-fitting lid

and put a damp piece of paper in the bucket.

Some original cartridges have an orange protective cover.

If the protective cover has already been opened,

it must be replaced before storage.

Do not store ink cartridges in plastic bags.

Avoid touching the ink cartridge nozzle.

Do not let any object touch the ink cartridge nozzle.

Maintain the printer regularly

The printer needs regular maintenance.

If it is not used for printing for a long time, it may cause the print head to become clogged.

Regular printing can not only prevent print head clogging,

but also reduce the ink used to clean the ink cartridge,

thus reducing printing costs to some extent.

Keep the printer on

It is recommended to leave the printer on at all times.

When the printer is turned on, it automatically maintains the ink cartridge,

keeping it in good condition.

This reduces the likelihood of the ink cartridge drying out and the print head becoming clogged.

In addition, the printer's power consumption in sleep mode is low.

This helps use as much ink as possible for printing.

Turn off using the power button

If you need to turn off the printer,

make sure to turn it off using the power button.

After the power lamp goes out, unplug the plug.

Thus, the ink cartridge can move to the protective position.

The nozzle is covered by the protective cap.

This can effectively delay the ink drying at the nozzle.

The high temperature in summer may accelerate the evaporation of ink at the ink cartridge nozzle.

Try to avoid the printer and ink cartridges being exposed to direct sunlight and reduce the time the printer and ink cartridges are in a high temperature environment.
