Normal power on / off is very important for the maintenance and extension of the service life of the Fedar thermal printer. Many users ignore this point, and may disconnect the power directly after the thermal printer finishes its work. Today we will analyze the effect of normal power on and off the thermal printer.
The large-format thermal printer is a relatively expensive precision machine. In order to print beautiful large-format color images, it must work at its best. The important condition for keeping it in the best printing state for a long time is to operate according to chapters and be diligent in maintenance. Although the use method is not complicated, the user still needs to develop the habit of strictly following the instructions to complete the whole operation, especially the correct switching habit.For users, turning the machine on and off is the simplest operation, but it is also the most important maintenance measure. There are many control keys on the printer panel, as well as a power switch key. The power switch is not directly connected to the external power supply, but controls the external power supply through its own control.
Whenever the thermal printer is turned on or off, the machine needs to initialize the system. These initialization tasks include positioning and resetting the printhead and print media, detecting whether the top cover of the machine panel is closed, filling the ink tank, and automatically cleaning the printhead.When turning on and off the power switch on the thermal printer, the system can correctly position the printhead and media after initialization, and the system will also automatically reset the printhead and media after initialization when the system is turned off. This can not only ensure the normal work of the printer, reduce the failure rate and eliminate hidden troubles, extend the life of the printer, but also reduce the cost of printing supplies and equipment maintenance costs, greatly improving work efficiency.
If the user forcibly removes the power plug to turn off the thermal printer while the printer is powered on, the printhead cannot be reset, and the top cover cannot be covered, which will easily cause the printhead positioning failure.The user needs to pay attention to this: Fedar thermal printer has a large frame, light weight, and wheels, which are highly mobile. When plugging in the power cord, be sure to place it in a place where it is not easy to touch and avoid inadvertently causing the power supply to go offline instead of shutting down normally.
