How to keep your sublimation printer in good working condition?
Everyone wants a dye-sublimation printer that performs every day and is reliable.
By performing basic preventative maintenance routines on your wide-format dye-sub printers, you can both prolong the life of your printer investment and ensure its day to day quality performance.

Be sure to check with your vendor to see what preventative maintenance training resources are available to you when you buy the printer. These simple preventative steps will save you big bucks on expensive break-fix repairs in the long run.

Exercise your inkjet printer daily. Even a simple nozzle check will keep it in shape. It is cheaper to print a basic color chart, test pattern, or any nozzle pattern than fixing a clogged head.

They should be available to assist you with proper installation, as well as any basic procedures and training resources to enable you to become self-sufficient in the day to day operation of dye-sub printers.
