In the process of printing reinforced all-resin carbon strips, you may encounter a variety of problems, which mainly involve the quality of the carbon strip itself, the setting and status of the printer, and some details of the operation process. Here are some common problems and their possible causes:
1. The print is not clear or poor quality
Carbon strip quality problems: such as bubbles on the surface of the carbon strip, ink is not evenly coated, etc., which may be due to problems in the production process.
Improper printer Settings: such as printing temperature is too low, printing speed is too fast, etc., may affect the transfer effect of carbon tape, resulting in unclear printing.
Print head aging or damage: Print heads are key components that directly affect print quality, and long-term use or improper operation may cause their performance to decline.
2. The carbon belt wrinkles or breaks
Slitting and tension control problems: During the production slitting process, if the tension is not properly controlled, the carbon strip may wrinkle. Wrinkled carbon bands are prone to breakage during the printing process.
The state of the printer is not good: such as uneven paper spring, improper adjustment of the paper limiter, etc., may also cause the carbon belt to wrinkle or break due to uneven tension during the printing process.
Improper operation: If the carbon belt is installed incorrectly, there are foreign objects inside the printer, etc., it may also cause physical damage to the carbon belt.
3. The carbon tape is adhered to the printing medium
Printing temperature is too high: Too high printing temperature may cause the resin on the carbon strip to melt excessively and stick to the printing medium (such as paper, labels, etc.).
Improper selection of printing media: Some printing media may not be suitable for use with reinforced all-resin carbon tape, which is prone to adhesion.
4. Insufficient or wasteful carbon strip length
The length of the carbon belt itself: the length of the purchased carbon belt may not meet the actual demand, resulting in early depletion of the carbon belt during the printing process.
Printer setup or operation problems: if the printer does not correctly identify the length of the carbon belt, the operator does not properly dispose of the remaining carbon belt when replacing the carbon belt, etc., it may lead to waste of carbon belt.
5. Other questions
Paper core problems: The inner diameter tolerance of the paper core is too large or too small, which may cause the carbon strip to be incorrectly installed on the printer, or problems such as paper jams occur during use.
Transportation and storage problems: The carbon belt is affected by high temperature, humidity and other adverse effects during transportation or storage, which may cause its performance to be degraded or damaged.
In order to avoid these problems, it is recommended that users pay attention to the quality of carbon belts when selecting them and ensure that they are purchased from reliable manufacturers; Read the operation manual carefully before using the printer, and correctly set and adjust the printer parameters; At the same time, pay attention to the daily maintenance and maintenance of the printer to ensure that it works in the best condition. In addition, reasonable storage and transportation of carbon belts is also an important factor to ensure their quality.
