What is the Treatment Method of UV Printer with Wrong Ink?

 If the UV printer accidentally adds ink that is different from the ink cartridge, it is easy to cause the two inks to be incompatible. Make deposits in the ink path, block the ink path system or nozzles, and cause unnecessary losses. As a UV Ink Supplier, share with you. Once the wrong UV ink is added, there are the following four solutions:

One: The UV ink has just been added to the ink cartridge and has not yet entered the ink supply path. In this case, you only need to replace a new ink cartridge.


Two: If the UV ink has entered the ink supply ink path, the entire ink path needs to be cleaned and the corresponding filter must be replaced. If it is not clean, the entire ink supply system needs to be replaced.


Three. If the cleaning function has been turned on, it means that the ink has entered the print head. At this time, you need to remove the print head immediately, clean the print head with cleaning fluid, and discharge the ink as much as possible.


Four. If the nozzle is severely clogged, you need to find a professional to deal with it.


For a new starter in UV printing, a quick introduction to UV ink,

UV ink is a kind of ink without solvent, fast drying speed, good gloss, bright color, water resistance, solvent resistance, and abrasion resistance. UV ink has become a more mature ink technology, and its pollutant emission is almost zero. It should be noted that the water-based UV ink in UV ink is a new research direction in the field of UV ink. Because the viscosity of the prepolymer in ordinary UV inks is generally very large, it needs to be diluted with a reactive diluent. The diluent acrylate compounds used have different degrees of skin irritation and toxicity. Therefore, low viscosity prepolymers and low viscosity In addition to toxic diluents, another development direction is to study water-based UV inks, that is, water and ethanol are used as diluents. Water-based UV inks have been successfully developed and used in some printing companies.


UV ink has the characteristic of selectively absorbing UV light. Drying is affected by the total energy of UV light source radiation and the energy distribution of light of different wavelengths. Under the irradiation of UV light, the UV ink photopolymerization initiator absorbs photons of a certain wavelength and is excited to an excited state to form free radicals or ions. Then through intermolecular energy transfer, the polymerized prepolymer and light-sensitive monomers and polymers become excited states, resulting in a charge-transfer complex. These complex particles are continuously cross-linked and polymerized to solidify into a film.

How to print DTF (direct to film) Sublimation step by step

  Print images for sublimation on textiles, using a film and   DTF printing technique ! This is an introduction to a new printing technique called DTF printing also known as direct to film printing. This printing technique brings more possibilities to textile printing as it can be fully applied on dark color and light color fabrics such as nylon, polyester, cotton, canvas, leather, and others.  It is a method of sublimation of small designs whose results are in full color. The designs will have a very soft and smooth texture, they will be stretchable, and long-lasting because they will be resistant to washing.   The DTF print process requires: ● DTFprinter/ Epson L805 or Epson L1800 (They must be adapted) ●  DTF inks ● DTF powder ● DTF film  ● Special design software (ACRORIP, EKprint, Kothari RIP) ● Heat press The dtf film comes in two sizes: the A4 size, and the A3 size which allows you to print larger format images...

The process of making different types of inks

One of the most important, integral and indivisible factors in ink manufacturing is   the type of pigment used in the ink . Everything from the appearance of the ink to the characteristics of the ink to the way it lasts depends on the pigments used to color the ink. Therefore, when you want to know the right type of ink for your requirements, it is important to know the type of pigment used in the ink. With the wide variety of inks on the market, it can be difficult to know which ink is best for the purpose you have in mind. When it comes time to print, having a guide to pigments and inks makes it easier for people to make the right choice.   Water-based inks and their pigments. While inks have many uses and they represent many businesses, one of the most common commercial uses of ink is for printing paper. Copiers, printers, and other such printing devices utilize digital printing methods, and the inks used for these purposes are usually water-based inks. Experts such as pigm...

The Pros and Cons of Dye Ink: Is it the Right Choice for Your Printing Projects?

W hen it comes to printing, selecting the right type of ink is crucial for achieving the desired results. One popular option is dye ink, known for its vibrant colors and affordability. However, like any printing material, dye ink has its own set of advantages and disadvantages. In this article, we will explore the pros and cons of   universal dye ink   to help you determine if it is the right choice for your printing projects. Pros of Dye Ink Vibrant Colors: Dye ink is renowned for its ability to produce bright and vibrant colors. It can achieve a wide color gamut, making it ideal for applications that require vivid and eye-catching prints. Excellent Color Blending: Dye ink has excellent color blending properties, allowing for smooth gradients and seamless color transitions. This makes it well-suited for printing photographs and images with intricate color variations. Cost-Effective: Dye ink is generally more affordable compared to other types of inks, such as pigment or solve...
