The general manufacturer's warranty period is no physical damage, warranty for 3 months or print 30 kilometers, whichever comes first, so reasonable plus proper maintenance and maintenance of the print head can double the bar code printer Life expectancy, reducing the cost of use, especially for high-end industrial machines, the cost is greatly reduced. The following small series of 10 effective ways to extend the life of the bar code printer, I hope to help everyone:


1. The print head should use a high-quality smooth and back-coated film thermal transfer ribbon to reduce friction.

2. Minimize printhead pressure and print temperature.

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

4. Cover the dust cover of the printer after printing, and always maintain and maintain the printer.

5. When printing label paper, do not print for too long. Easy to get static electricity.

6. After using for a period of time, use alcohol cotton to stick alcohol and wipe the print head (black one). After wiping, be sure to dry and print.

7. Gently blow off the printing unit, such as the platen roller, label sensor, ribbon sensor, and dust and fiber dust on the printhead. Never use any hard, metal, abrasive tools (such as screwdrivers) to remove viscous dirt or other debris from the printhead.

8. Using a cleaning pen or cotton swab with solvent (alcohol with a concentration of 95% or more), press the front end of the cleaning tab to fit the print head and always wipe the print head from side to side, repeat the above steps until the cleaning is checked. No more smudges appear.

9. Rotate the platen roller to remove dust from the platen roller. Repeat the above steps until there are no more stains on the cleaning plate.

10. Ensure that the ribbon width is wider than the label. When printing, the ribbon covers both sides of the label paper to prevent the exposed print head from being scratched by the label.
