At present, Epson head is widely used in various digital printers, and the head also has a great impact on the Visual-Tex DTF film printer. We must pay attention to it when purchasing or replacing the digital Visual-Tex DTF film printer and installing a new head.

Here are some important tips for installing print heads:

1. The installation of the print head is very important. The main reason is that the print head is expensive and exquisite. The installation error may greatly affect the normal printing state of the piezoelectric head! In other words, a little carelessness will cause damage to the print head! Therefore, it is necessary to know the installation of printer header! Please be sure to follow the instructions to avoid damaging the print head due to improper operation and causing you unnecessary losses.

2. Before installing the head, first ensure that the Visual-Tex DTF film printer operates normally, the ground wire of the Visual-Tex DTF film printer is well connected, the voltage on the trolley board is normal, and the power supply voltage of the head is normal! The simplest way is to use a multimeter to measure whether the Visual-Tex DTF film printer has static electricity, the voltage of the carriage board and the power supply voltage of the print head. Generally, the power supply voltage of Epson’s fifth generation print head is 42V DC!

3. In the software, test that all aspects of the Visual-Tex DTF film printer movement are normal, the encoder sensor is normal, and the indicator light is normal! Before installation, the installer shall contact the conductor with both hands to discharge. The operator’s hands shall not have sweat or steam, because once the print head is inserted, touching the print head wire plug may lead to a short circuit of the print head! In addition, remember not to wear plastic cloth clothes that are easy to generate static electricity. If possible, it is best to wear electrostatic rings with both hands. Before installation, turn off the power supply and unplug the power cord!

4. Generally, the print head has more than 2 flat flat flat lines. Check whether the plug line of the line is warped and flat. It is best to use a new plug line. Insert the plug line into the print head firmly without any inclination. The flat cable scale is generally divided into positive and negative poles. One side contacts the circuit and the other side does not contact the circuit. The direction cannot be wrong. The insertion must be checked for many times to confirm that there is no problem. The head is installed in the cart frame.

5. Connect the flat cable to the carriage board: first, the Visual-Tex DTF film printer should run without power in case of power failure! It can’t be the wrong position. The head at the corresponding position of the outgoing line must be clear before doing it. If you are hesitant or uncertain, don’t try to install it first. Be sure to consult the manufacturer or ask for the correct picture of the position of the plug line, or replace the picture marked on each line before disassembly! Prevent plug in the power and can’t start! Because the consequences will be very serious. Once the head is burned by mistake, the possibility is very high. Because the function of the cable is different, the wrong plug is bound to burn the head! Also, the direction of the plug head cannot be reversed. Once the plug is reversed, although it may not burn the head, there is still a chance. Double check must be carried out after inserting the cable.

6. After installation, be sure to check three to five times to confirm that there is no problem after power on. It is best not to turn off the print head when starting. First use the ink pump to lead the ink, and then turn on the power supply of the head. If the power switch on the whole Visual-Tex DTF film printer is excluded, first check whether the flashing is normal. The flashing is normal, which proves that the installation is successful. If the flash jet is abnormal, please turn off the power immediately and check whether there are problems elsewhere. It is in the state of confirming the new print head.

7. The installation of print head must be careful and clear before installation.

8. It is also critical to check whether the head is new before installing the Visual-Tex DTF film printer.

9. When inserting the ink bag, do not let the ink drop onto the data line, because the ink flowing from the data line will directly enter the circuit, which may cause a short circuit and directly burn the head.

10. It is better to choose high-quality ink for digital Visual-Tex DTF film printer, and pay more attention to the maintenance of the Visual-Tex DTF film printer and head, so as to prolong the service life of the head.
