Printer maintenance

Maintaining a printer is very important in a sign making company, we rely on the printers for nearly everything we do. They need to be cleaned at least once a month or it can create problems for the machine and the prints.
To clean the printers all you need is some maintenance fluid, ECO buds and paper towels.



This is what the inside of a printer looks like if you don't clean and maintain it at least once a month. 












To clean the printer you soak the ECO buds in maintance fluid and dabs the part of the printer that needs cleaning, then leave this to soak so the ink will come of easier later on.


After leaving the fluid to soak in use some different ECO buds to rub away the access ink, you also have to rub the ECO bud in between the printer heads this is to get away access ink.
These are all the things you need to clean the printers
Maintenance fluid, ECO buds and blue roll or paper towels.
The ECO buds are used for applying the fluid to the printers, then the blue roll is used to wipe away any unwanted fluid and wiping away the ink of the printer. After doing this to the printer it should be clean and ready for using again.
