How to perform daily care on barcode printers?

If you want a barcode printer to last longer, you need to maintain it carefully so that it can last longer and be more efficient in the long run. Now many people are worried about the service life of a barcode printer when buying it. In fact, you can also consider it from another perspective: a good quality printer + careful maintenance = beyond performance. Therefore, the daily care of the barcode printer is very important. The following Zhuhai Jiabo will share with you the cleaning links that should be paid attention to in daily care:




  Cleaning of the print head:


  Cleaning of the printer print head. After turning off the power, wipe with a cotton swab and alcohol. Please wipe in the same direction to avoid residual dirt. Turn up the print head, remove the ribbon and label paper, and gently wipe the print head with a cotton swab (or cotton cloth) until it is clean, then gently dry the print head with a clean cotton swab. Keeping the barcode print head clean can not only get good printing results, but most importantly, extend the life of the print head.


  Cleaning of the sensor:


  Keep the sensor clean to avoid paper detection errors or ribbon errors. The sensor includes a ribbon sensor and a label sensor. The location is shown in the manual. The method is to wipe the sensor head with a cotton swab soaked in alcohol, and then wipe it dry.


  Cleaning of the transmission system and the inside of the chassis:


  Because the general label paper is self-adhesive, its glue is easy to stick to the transmission shaft and channel, and the dust directly affects the printing effect, so it needs to be cleaned frequently. The method is to use a cotton swab (or cotton cloth) soaked in alcohol to wipe the surfaces of the transmission shafts and channels and the dust in the chassis. After cleaning, wipe it dry.


  Cleaning and maintenance of the glue stick:


  The printer glue stick is cleaned with a cotton swab and alcohol to keep the glue stick clean. The surface of the glue stick should be kept clean to obtain good printing effects and extend the life of the print head. During the printing process, the label paper will leave a lot of powder on the glue stick. If it is not cleaned in time, it will damage the print head;


  The above are some matters that Zhuhai Jiabo has sorted out and shared for everyone to pay attention to in the daily care of barcode printers. I hope it will be helpful to everyone. Although the daily care of barcode printers cannot improve performance, it can extend its service life. If each machine is carefully maintained, there will be a big difference in economic benefits and costs.
