There are a variety of problems that may occur during the printing process of colored copper label paper, which may stem from paper characteristics, printer Settings, ink quality or environmental factors. Here are some common problems and their possible causes:
First, the paper problem
1. To bend or curl:
Reason: the coated paper is thick and easy to bend or curl due to moisture absorption or uneven drying, which will affect the print quality and the smoothness of the paper feed.
The solution: Keep the paper flat before printing and avoid prolonged exposure to wet or dry environments.
2. Depowder or depowder:
Reason: The surface coating of coated paper may fall off due to excessive pressure during the printing process, resulting in a decline in print quality.
Solution: Adjust the printing pressure and use the appropriate ink and printing technology to reduce the damage to the paper surface.
Second, the printer setting problem
1. Difficulty in feeding paper or paper jam:
Reason: the coated paper is thick, if the printer is not properly set (such as the paper type is not correctly set, the height of the print head is not adjusted, etc.), it is easy to lead to paper feeding difficulties or paper jams.
Solution: According to the thickness and characteristics of coated paper, correctly set the printer parameters, such as paper type, print head height, etc.
2. Poor print quality:
The reason: the printer resolution setting is too low, the ink is insufficient or dry, and the print head is blocked, etc., which can cause the print quality to decline.
Solution: Improve the printer resolution, ensure that the ink is sufficient and good quality, and clean the print head regularly.
Third, ink problems
1. Uneven ink penetration:
Reason: coated paper ink absorption is poor, if the ink viscosity or fluidity is not suitable, easy to lead to uneven ink penetration.
Solution: Adjust the viscosity and fluidity of the ink according to the ink absorption of the coated paper to ensure that the ink can be evenly attached to the surface of the paper.
2. Sticky or slow to dry:
Reason: The back of the coated paper is smooth, if the ink is not dry or handled improperly during the printing process, it is easy to lead to sticky or slow drying problems.
Solution: Use quick-drying inks, ensure adequate drying time after printing, or use anti-stick measures (such as the use of anti-stick agent).
Fourth, environmental issues
1. Temperature and humidity effects:
Reason: coated paper is sensitive to temperature and humidity changes, too high or too low temperature and humidity may lead to paper deformation, ink drying speed changes and other problems.
Solution: Keep the ambient temperature and humidity stable during the printing process to avoid the impact of drastic changes on the print quality.
Fifth, other common problems
1. Color deviation:
Reasons: Ink quality, printer Settings, paper characteristics, etc., can cause color deviation.
Solution: Use high-quality ink and paper, set the printer parameters correctly, and perform color calibration and testing.
2. Blurred or double image:
Reasons: insufficient printer resolution, unstable print head movement, inaccurate paper positioning, etc., may lead to blurred or double image.
Solution: Improve the printer resolution, ensure stable print head movement, adjust the paper positioning accuracy.
In summary, there are a variety of problems that may occur in the printing process of color copperplate label paper, which need to be solved by comprehensively considering the paper characteristics, printer Settings, ink quality and environmental factors. In actual operation, it is recommended to check and adjust according to the specific situation to obtain the best printing effect.
