III. Points to emphasize _Complete summary of actual head problems

 

1. Ali Direct Import Print Head _Complete summary of actual head problems

Although not all are like this, there are some concerns about heads imported directly from Ali.

One customer had a case where the board on the head carriage was damaged.

If the light on the board continues to blink even after disconnecting the DATA cable connected to the head, the board will not be usable.

You can see the video of the light blinking on the board by clicking the link below.

10. “The printer prints, but no ink comes out.” 

Most cheap heads are separated from desktop printers, washed, and then sold.

If the board connection is alive during this process, it can be used, but if there is something wrong,

• It may not jet at all after connecting to the board,
• or the data cable may be damaged,
• or reverse current may flow from the head and damage the board.

For reference, the consumer I just talked to bought two heads from Ali, one worked fine for a while, then broke the board,

and the other one didn’t pump (inkload) after connecting the damper (I didn’t connect the DATA cable just in case),

so when I tried to remove the damper to check the connection status of the damper, not only the damper came off, but it also separated with the block that goes into the ink.

The other channels were the same.

2. No matter how much I emphasize the DATA Cable connection,,,_Complete summary of actual head problems

At the head connection point and at the board connection point,

the 29 golds on the DATA Cable must exactly match the 29 metals on the board.

If even one is not right or slightly overlapped,

• the light on the board may blink,
• and even if the light on the board does not blink, the color may come out strangely when printed.
• A bigger problem is that communication errors continue or it sticks and falls off, which can eventually damage the board.

When connecting the DATA cable to the head, most people do it by sight, so there were no major problems.

 

However, when connecting to the board,,, I saw a few cases where they were mistaken and caused problems.

• Because of the printer cover, if you roughly connect it by sight and cannot confirm that the gold lines exactly match,
• If you connect it by sight without removing the plastic cover above.
• When connecting the DATA cable to the board, be sure to remove the cover as shown below and check with your eyes that the gold lines exactly match.

10. “The printer prints, but no ink comes out.” 

 

3. “Is there a direction for the DATA Cable?” _Complete summary of actual head problems

I haven’t actually tested it, but when I did it like below, there has never been a problem caused by the DATA Cable.

• The DATA Cable has one end cut with a large margin as shown in the photo below, and the other end has the margin intact.
• The part with the margin cut should be plugged into the head,
• and the part where the margin is not cut may be connected to the board as it is because the board margin is different for each manufacturer,
• and since the margin on both sides of the ARTJET must be the same, as shown below, it should be cut with nippers to the same extent as the opposite margin and then connected to the board.

 

IV. This is how ARTJET supports our customers.

One thing I feel while selling and maintaining ARTJET UV Printers for 5 years is that the next most important thing after product stability is Troubleshooting DATA.

All products have problems, whether they are actual equipment problems or consumer errors, and product stability is how easily and quickly you solve those problems.

We are organizing all the troubleshooting DATA as follows.
