How to clean the printer nozzle

With the gradual popularization of digital cameras, inkjet printer figure is becoming more and more everywhere. In the enjoyment of inkjet printers to bring us convenience at the same time, we also often encounter ink-jet printer color printing distortion, print, such as blurred handwriting problems, serious time will also appear unable to print the phenomenon. When this symptom occurs, most of the ink jet printer's nozzle is blocked by ink, for example, when the ink-jet printer is not used for a long time, printing nozzle ink due to weathering or moisture evaporation caused by ink condensed class, or inkjet printer because in different times mixed with several different brands of ink, After the ink mixing because of the chemical reaction, it is also easy to cause the printing nozzle plug phenomenon. Obviously, if the inkjet printer's nozzle is blocked, inkjet printers will often not be able to do normal printing operation; So what can we do to get the nozzle back to normal when it's stuck in print? Below, this article for you to print the user contribution two coup, to help you to effectively eliminate the blocking state of the print nozzle, quickly let ink-jet printer working state back to normal!

Do it yourself, get the nozzle back to normal.

When we found that the ink-jet printer to print out the content of disconnection or white road phenomenon, and the printer cartridge still has a lot of remaining ink, we must use manual cleaning method will plug in the nozzle of the ink class cleared away. When using manual methods to clean clogged ink nozzles, we first need to carefully remove the cartridges installed in the cartridge racks, and carefully observe whether there is an integrated circuit section at the bottom of the cartridge, where the location is in fact the nozzle position; then I found an ordinary teacup, And pour some of the warm water around 60 Celsius, and the ink cartridge at the bottom of the integrated circuit part of the warm water soak for 20 minutes or so, where you need to remind you that we can only the bottom of the ink cartridge to soak in the water, but must not be the entire cartridge soaked in the water;

When the nozzle at the bottom of the ink box in the warm water for more than 20 minutes, we must promptly remove the ink cartridge from the waters, and then forcibly attached to the surface of the sprinkler head to shake clean, in the process of dumping water will be found in the nozzle position will flow out some ink, At this time we can use a clean cotton cloth will flow out of the ink wipe clean, and then clean the successful cartridge in the correct way to reinstall the ink-Jet printer cartridge box, finally we might as well perform a print test page operation to see if the print nozzle can work properly.

In the actual use of inkjet printers, there are a lot of print users often will be the ink cartridges from the printer cartridge box out, so it is easy to print nozzle serious blockage phenomenon, and even the ink cartridge inside the ink can also occur, at this time the printer will generally appear unable to print phenomenon. When the nozzle is seriously clogged, we must prepare some 95% alcohol and a plastic medical syringe, then use a disposable infusion hose to connect the print nozzle for ink, and then the head position of the print nozzle placed to the concentration of about 95% alcohol, And then through the print nozzle will be inhaled alcohol into the medical syringe, repeated several times the ink-absorbing operation can be the nozzle of the plug ink Clean clean.

Tips: In view of the different ink manufacturers to produce ink ingredients are different, the ink if often mixed with the use of the same, prone to chemical reactions and may produce particles, these particles will cause damage to print nozzle, which can easily cause the printing nozzle plug phenomenon. Therefore, in order to reduce the number of printing nozzle blockage occurred, we try not to frequently change the ink model, so as to avoid the printing nozzle caused by harm. In addition, after each use of empty ink, all need to reinstall the new cartridge; When installing new ink cartridges, must control the installation strength, if the absence of an absent-minded force to press the ink cartridge box, it is easy to cause the ink cartridge support mechanism deformation or displacement, thus affecting the normal ink spraying; So when you install a new cartridge, As far as possible according to the ink-jet printer operating instructions, use the appropriate force to place the ink cartridges in the ink cartridge support mechanism, and do not use brute force to destroy the cartridge bracket.

Use external force to restore normal plug nozzle

If we find that the ink-jet printer's print is just a little bit darker, and other printing operations are normal, that means that the ink cartridge nozzle is not very serious phenomenon, encountered this nozzle is blocked phenomenon, we can use inkjet printer built-in nozzle cleaning procedures to allow the plug to return to normal nozzle , generally speaking, most models of inkjet printers will have a special sprinkler cleaning program.

For example, the author unit has a model for Canon Bubble-jet S400 inkjet printer, recently in the use of the printer printing materials, the author found that the printed text is not very clear, so I intend to use the inkjet printer with the nozzle cleaning program, To clean the blocked print heads. When the sprinkler cleaning operation is performed, I first put a clean A4 paper into the printer feed slot, then click the Start/settings/Printers and Faxes command, open the Printer List window on the local computer, right-click the target Inkjet printer icon in the window, From the shortcut menu that pops up, perform the Properties command, open the Properties Settings window for the inkjet printer, click the Maintenance tab in the Settings window, go to the label Settings page shown in Figure 1, click the "Clean" button on the Settings page, and the ink-jet printer will automatically clean the nozzle. When the cleaning operation completes, the inkjet printer automatically prints the test page operation. If the nozzle cleaning effect, then the printed test page should be more clear; if you perform a nozzle cleaning operation, the printed handwriting is still not very clear, we might as well click on the 1 label page "clean" button to clean the print nozzle thoroughly, I believe that the blocked print nozzle will be able to return to normal working state.
Use the inkjet printer driver built-in cleaning function to clean the print nozzle, its main advantage is easy to operate, fast, but the effect of cleaning plug nozzle is often difficult to satisfy. Of course, after cleaning the nozzle, if you find that the output quality of inkjet printer is not as good as before, we can continue to click the "Print Head Calibration" button in the label page of Figure 1, and then follow the instructions of the wizard window to complete the nozzle calibration operation, I believe that the output quality of the print

Small tip: In the cleaning of inkjet printer's nozzle, as far as possible, use the software-controlled sprinkler cleaning procedures for cleaning operations, and do not use manual cleaning. Especially in the replacement of new ink cartridges or inject new ink, be sure to remember to clean the nozzle in time to avoid several different models of ink mixing with ink solidification phenomenon. In addition, if the printing process is found in the printing of ink on the page to light, stripes and other phenomena, the nozzle should also be cleaned in time. If the use of the program cleaning failure, it means that the nozzle plug is more serious, this situation is generally inkjet printer for a long time or use the process of sudden power off phenomenon, the printing nozzle did not timely reset caused. This time we can try to use a common syringe to the printer's nozzle, and then constantly push and pull the injector's piston, in order to use high-speed air flow to clean the blocked nozzle. In addition, in order to effectively protect the jet printer's nozzle, we also need to pay attention to the printer's power plug operation, if the power plug is not properly, can ink-jet printer's nozzle damage, this is how to do? It turns out that if you don't turn off the power switch in the inkjet printer first, and directly unplug the ink-jet printer power cable, the printer's nozzle has not had time to reset, its ink box has not been covered, so that ink easily from the ink box from the small hole in the volatile; If the printer is violently shaken or moved at this time, The printer's nozzle may be damaged, so it is easy to unplug the power cable without turning off the printer power button, which can cause damage to the inkjet printer nozzle. So when the inkjet printer is moved or moving violently, you must disconnect the power cable to allow the inkjet printer to be permanently powered off, and when unplugging the power cable, be sure to first turn off the inkjet printer's power switch to ensure that the printer nozzle is reset in time and that the ink box is covered in time. Then unplug the power cables and data cables, so as to avoid the waste of ink, but also not easy to damage inkjet printer nozzle.
