Here are a few advices about how to lower the costs of your printing jobs. It is essential to clean your print head at least once a month. Remove the cartridge and clean the head with warm water. Don’t use wet tissues or alcohol to clean the print head. After cleaning, allow the print head to dry completely before fixing it back. You must also clean the insides of the printer regularly. Don’t wait until the dust and grime form layers, preventing your printer from operating efficiently. Use lint-free cloths that are slightly moist to wipe the dust away. While cleaning your printer, never apply too much force even if you encounter stubborn corners of grime. Use soft bristles and moistened Q-tips to remove the grime. Alternatively, you can also use compressed air to blow out the dust that is accumulated within the printer. Try to avoid using a vacuum unless it is a pressure-controlled vacuum that sucks the dust away gently.
Like most products, your printer will last longer if you take good care of it; even an incorrectly resolved paper jam can lead to printing issues in the future. Instead of getting frustrated when a jam does occur and yanking the paper out, refer to the instructions that come with the printer to find the best way to fix a jam on your specific model. Usually, the best practice is to use both hands to slowly pull the jammed paper out of the printer to avoid leaving ripped paper behind or damaging the internal parts of the printer. You can also prevent jams by making sure the paper you load into the printer is not torn, dog-eared or stuck together and that the tray is not overfilled.
What’s the difference between a 12-point font and a 14-point font? Size, certainly, but also the amount of ink used–so super-size only when you need to. Give your documents an extra read through before you print them out, and you might save yourself a reprint. Printers are factory set to be ink guzzlers, but that’s easy enough to change. To update your printer’s default settings on a Windows-based computer, click start > printers > right click on your printer and select printer preferences.
If your business buys in bulk, you’re going to want to know the best way to store those extra cartridges. First, we recommend keeping the cartridges in their sealed packaging until you need them. If you remove a cartridge from it’s packaging and it is sitting out for a period, it will eventually dry out. Storing them upright in a relatively dark closet is also preferred. Cartridges left on their side might shift the ink to one side, which could affect your print results once installed in the machine. If you happen to have an opened cartridge lying around reseal it as best you can. If you have the protective tape or clip, reapply it before storing.
