The EPSON inkjet printer is known for its unique nozzle technology, exquisite printing effect, and is therefore, the nozzle of EPSON is extremely easily blocked, forming a disconnection when printing. Although the EPSON printer comes with a printhead cleaning function, this is at the expense of expensive ink with white and white, and only one color is blocked, and other colors should be cleaned and was sprayed away. After practical, I finally discovered a nozzle cleaning must kill weapon - "distilled water"!
Its basic idea is to inject distilled water into the old ink cartridge and change to the printer. Since the distilled water is not soluble, the cleanliness is high, no corrosive, so the solubility is strong, and the nozzle does not cause additional blockage. After cleaning, the printing accuracy will not decrease, and the distilled water is very cheap.
The following is a detailed introduction to the steps for the EPSON Stylus Color 600 inkjet printer.
In advance, you must prepare a set of old ink cartridges (black, color each), disposable syringe, small cone (compass), a transparent tape, about 20 mm wide, distilled water is about 30ml (all have to use pure water instead, the key is Ensure that there is no solid impurity). The old ink cartridge is sealed with a transparent tape. Since there is no structure in the EPSON ink cartridge, it can be relieved to separately drill on the back surface of each of the colored cartridges (as shown in Fig. 1), with a hole diameter of about 1 to 1.5 mm. Take the syringe to take a syringe to distilled water, don't be too much, more than 7ml may overflow. Turn the needle into the small hole, with the water while drawing, so that the sponge is uniformly absorbed, and then the water injection hole is sealed with a transparent glue. The ink cartridge after the water should be positive to the mouth, so that the moisture is infiltrated, do not invert, so as to prevent the ink ink, the ink is caught out from the top of the box.
note:
(1) Do not direct the ink or intake hole ink or intake the holes, the former may pollute the superfine filter in the ink port, which may destroy the air pressure balance in the ink cartridge, and ultimately make the cleaning to be reversed;
(2) The old ink cartridge is preferably newly used, and it can be sealed with the ink port and the air seam when saving, and the ink cartridge is not opened. If the ink cartridge has been carried out 2 ~ 6 hours in advance The water is placed, so that the residual in which drys is used to completely enter the distilled water.
Remove the ink cartridge in the printer in a clean environment. If the printer is not flashing, the ink cartridge cannot be taken out, and the chance that the ink cartridge moves out when the printer is turned on immediately, and the power plug is immediately unplugged, forcing it to stop the ink cartridge. Don't pay attention to the warning of Epson, this will not damage the printer, just after the end of the cleaning, the wrong ink will be reported, which is not necessarily ignored, just replace the new ink cartridge when the ink is really replaced. ! After the ink cartridge is taken, you should use the transparent glue to push, correct, spare. Replace the old ink cartridge of water injection, re-energize the open printer can start cleaning. It is recommended that you control your cleaning through the software, just use "My Computer" → "Printer" → Right-click "Epson Stylus Color 600" → "Print Head Cleaning" button in the "Application Tool" page. According to the degree of the nozzle being plugged in multiple times, it will work hard to work. If the clogging is serious, you can press it a hundred or more.
Next, it will be a longer waiting, but you don't have to be wasteful for ink, soak a cup of tea to do other things. When the cleaning is terminated, it is possible to print a check graphic, although the injected is distilled water, but the sponge in the old ink cartridge is a bit of residual pigment, and the shallow graph can still be played. It is confirmed that all of the spray holes have been cleaned, and the original ink cartridge or new ink cartridge is replaced. Of course, after replacing the original ink cartridge, you should change the ink cartridge when it will be cleaned 1 to 3 times.
