How To Take Good Care of the Print Head

Print heads are very expensive. Everybody knows that but HOW to take care of the print heads, many may ask. It's actually very simple. Just ensure that there is lubrication to prevent burnt out or clogging of print heads. Lubrication in this case refers to the ink. So, just make sure you keep refilling the cartridges with ink. Do not leave any cartridge empty.


For that reason, many switch from compatible (sponge in it usually prevents the ink from flowing out consistently causing air to move in and eventually damage the printhead) to spongeless refillable cartridge.


If your printer's print head does clog, this refillable cartridge can be used as a MAINTENANCE KIT to aid the cleaning process! First of all, you have to perform a nozzle check to find out which colour cartridge is clogged. For example, yellow ink doesn't come out because of a clog in the yellow cartridge. So, what you have to do is to take the yellow ink out from the yellow cartridge using a syringe and put it back into the yellow ink bottle. Then, put in a special cleaning chemical into the cartridge. Clean the print head once and leave it overnight. Then, clean the head again and leave it for another day. After 2 - 3 days of head cleaning, the clog should be cleared. Perform another nozzle check to confirm that there is no more clogs.


This method can clean minor clogs. When the clog is cleared, you can then throw the cleaning chemical away and put back the ink and start printing again! If the clog fails to clear, bring your printer to:
Berjaya Technology at 2-69 & 70, Low Yat Plaza, KL.
