What are the common problems that occur when using BOPP color thermal synthetic paper?

When using BOPP color thermal synthetic paper, you may encounter some common problems, which mainly involve material properties, printing effects, storage conditions and improper operation during use. Here is a summary of these frequently asked questions:

1. Color stability problem

Color fading: Due to the special nature of heat-sensitive synthetic paper, color fading may occur when exposed to strong light or extreme environmental conditions for a long time. This affects the appearance quality of the print and the readability of the information.

Color inconsistency: Different batches or different production conditions of BOPP color thermal synthetic paper may have color differences, resulting in inconsistent printing color.

2. Print effect problem

The printing is not clear: it may be caused by dirty print head, improper printing concentration setting or too fast printer speed.

Print alignment mark loss: This can be caused by incorrect media guide position, incorrect media type setting, or incorrect label paper loading.

Missed marks: In the continuous printing process, there may be a long missed mark, which is usually due to damage to the printing component or improper printer Settings.

3. Storage conditions problem

Improper storage environment: BOPP color thermal synthetic paper should be stored in a dry, ventilated, dust-free environment, avoid direct sunlight and high temperature and humidity conditions. Improper storage environment may lead to material performance degradation, affecting the printing effect.

Long storage time: Although the specific shelf life may vary depending on material quality and storage conditions, long storage time may cause the material to age and affect the color and physical properties of the print.

4. Operation problems during use

Improper tension control: In the printing and compounding process, if the tension is not properly controlled, it may cause the material to deform, wrinkle or tear, affecting the quality of the print.

Electrostatic problems: During the printing process, due to friction and contact, the surface of the material may be charged, adsorbing dust and impurities in the air, affecting the printing effect.

Scratches and contamination: care should be taken to avoid scratches and contamination during use, so as not to affect the appearance quality of the printed product and the readability of the information.

5. Other questions

Material damage: Due to the brittleness of BOPP color thermal synthetic paper, excessive bending, folding or extrusion should be avoided during handling, storage and use to avoid material damage.

Equipment compatibility: Different printers and printing equipment may have different adaptability to BOPP color thermal synthetic paper, so the compatibility of the equipment should be confirmed before use.

To solve these problems, the following measures can be taken to prevent and solve them:

Choose BOPP color thermal synthetic paper with high quality and good stability;

Control storage conditions to ensure that materials are stored in a suitable environment;

Correctly set the parameters of the printer, such as printing speed, printing concentration, etc.

Regular inspection and maintenance of the printing equipment to ensure that the equipment is in good working condition;

Pay attention to operation specifications during use to avoid unnecessary scratching and contamination;

In case of problems, contact suppliers or professional technicians for help.
