If there is something wrong with the continuous inkjet printer printing effect, what factors will you check first? Is pressure data & viscosity data your answer? Why will we look into these two factors instantly? let’s take a deeper look into the printing mechanism to find out.

Let’s take Linx CIJ 7900 as example. To start with, let’s get straight the relationship among four technical words, pressure, viscosity, speed, time of flight.

They work and affect each other so a CIJ printer can print smoothly. If we slow down printing speed, which means ink drop will have more time to fly from printhead to substrate, therefore time of flight increases. To make this happen, continuous printer will adjust to less pressure, and increase viscosity. Likewise, if we speed up printing, time of flight decrease, pressure raise up and viscosity drops.

Below is the diagram of Linx CIJ 7900 pressure control system, we could see clearly how pressure is adjusted. In this pressure system, pressure transducer plays a vital part in it. For more information about Linx 7900 pressure transducer, please kindly check on Ebay, or fill in below form.

Despite Linx CIJ printer with sealed print head, it doesn’t mean you could leave your Linx continuous inkjet printer working 24/7 without maintenance. Like any other CIJ printers, proper maintenance is the best way to extend printer life span.

When your Linx continuous inkjet printer work for more than 1400 hours, when the consumable become too thin to work, it’s time to call for a maintenance job.If there is not any problem, you just need to empty consumables, replace Linx filters, pre-charge filter and adjust circuits.

If you find there is problem in printhead, we could offer used printhead for replacement, tested before delivery and with 12 months warranty. Compatible Linx filter kits, electro valve, keypad, consumables, sure fill codes are also available.

When we order continuous inkjet printer spare parts, suppliers would love to use the word “original”. It’s a magic word, “original” spare part, with 1/2 or even 1/3 of original price. Though we may have doubts in mind, how could this ever possible, but again, you are asking a supplier from China, maybe everything is indeed possible. With a little luck mind, a deal seal.

But is this really a good deal, or eventually it will lead you to endless complaint? Well, I think there is one thing we all know in mind that original CIJ spare parts, only come with original price. The so call “original” by many suppliers, is not a full description of what they are selling, something is left unsay.

Take the Videojet ink core for example, it’s one of the most “original” inkjet printer spare parts claimed by suppliers, we manage to get three different conditions of it, all of them could broadly be called “original”.

1. Real Original: we purchase the ink core from local dealer
2. Real Original Refurbished: it is original indeed, but used. We collect second hand original parts, refurbished it till it performs good, then sell it.
3. Suspicious Original: come from unknown source, claim to be original.

As for as I am concerned, original refurbished spare parts are cost effective for most of clients, even the shell appearance shows history, the gadgets inside work perfectly well.

Continuous inkjet printer consumables are so frequently use, that we barely give a thought to their product name. Do you know the feature of ink is integrated in the ink item number? Let’s take Domino as example and have a look.

The most good sale Domino ink is IC270BK IR270BK MC270, IC292KB IR292BK IC292… Do you find a pattern, IC IR MC BK keep popping up repeatedly, what do they mean.

IC means ink cartridge 825ml

IR means ink tank/reservoir 1200ml

MC means solvent

WL means cleaning liquid

BK means color black

Then what does the number means, does it mean ink made of different ingredient? Yes, you are half right. It’s a subtle number, take 292 for example.

The first number 2 stands for MEK base material, which is standard ink

92 means ink number, with certain ingredient

So now we can understand MC270 means Domino solvent/make up for 270 standard MEK base black ink.

Isn’t it fun to know that.

When you come back to work after a wonderful holiday, a faulty continuous inkjet printer could really spoil your day. Instead of grouching, we should do something to solve this problem.

Solution

Under normal circumstance, if you stop your continuous inkjet printer for 3 days, probably the nozzle will be blocked, especially for printers apply with high cohesive ink. Therefore, we need to dissemble the nozzle and clean it thoroughly, then the printer will start to work as usual.

Prevention

Are there any ways to prevent nozzle from blocking? Yes, sure there are

1. If you could drop by workshop from time to time, then we could start the continuous inkjet printer to print 2~3 times a week, about 1 hours per time. Then we could keep the printer from stop working for a long period.
2. If you are not able to drop by and turn the CIJ printer on & off, then the ink & solvent should be removed before you set off for holiday.If you are not able to drop by and turn the CIJ printer on & off, then the ink & solvent should be removed before you set off for holiday.
