Texjet NG Series Printers: Long Inactivity

Long inactivity maintenance

STEP 1

Clean the capping stations, wiper blade, and the head guards from ink residue.

STEP 2

Fill the cap stations with cleaner solution, so the heads pool in liquid and their nozzles stay hydrated. Make sure the carriage is electronically locked afterwards. 

STEP 3

Fill the White ink tanks at least at 60-70% capacity, so no error occurs during the recirculation.  

STEP 4

Make sure the printer stays on power (plugged in) at all times, so the re-circulation of the white ink and the agitation of the tanks and subtanks is enabled. 

STEP 5

The workspace temperature should be monitored, and it should not exceed 28 Celsius degrees (82F) at all times.

Recovery

STEP 1

Fill the Wiper Tank with distilled water.

STEP 2

Wake up the NG printer per usual. Perform a Strong cleaning cycle followed by a Weak one. Check the nozzle test afterwards.

If there are still a few nozzle missing per channel you can proceed with a second Weak cleaning cycle. If the nozzle test is not properly restored, contact our team for guidelines.
