Adjusting the printing temperature of the enhanced wax based carbon ribbon can usually be done through settings in the printer driver. The following are general adjustment steps and precautions:


1、 Adjustment steps

Open the printer driver:

Find the printer icon on the computer, right-click, and select "Printing Preferences" or "Properties".

Enter option settings:

In the print preferences or properties window, find the "Options" or "Advanced" tab.

Adjust printing temperature:

In the options or advanced tab, find the "print head temperature" or "print density" settings.

The recommended printing temperature for enhanced wax based carbon ribbon is generally 7-9 degrees Celsius (this temperature range may vary depending on the printer model and specific requirements of the carbon ribbon).

Adjust the printing temperature to the appropriate range using the slider or input box.

Save settings and test printing:

After adjusting the printing temperature, click "OK" or "Apply" to save the settings.

Perform test printing to check if the printing effect meets the requirements.


2、 Precautions

Recommended temperature for reference carbon ribbon and printer:

Different brands and models of carbon ribbons and printers may have different optimal printing temperatures. Before adjusting the printing temperature, it is recommended to refer to the user manual or official recommendations of the ribbon and printer.

Adjust the temperature according to the printing effect:

If the printing effect is not clear or the color is light, you can increase the printing temperature appropriately.

If there is carbon tape sticking or label damage during printing, the printing temperature should be appropriately reduced.

Avoid excessively high or low temperatures:

Excessive printing temperature may cause carbon ribbon sticking, label damage, or shortened print head lifespan.

If the printing temperature is too low, it may cause unclear printing or light colors.

Regularly clean the print head:

After long-term use, the print head may accumulate dust or carbon residue, which can affect the printing effect. It is recommended to regularly use a specialized cleaning pen or soft cloth dipped in anhydrous alcohol to wipe the surface of the print head.

Pay attention to the printing environment:

The printing environment should be kept clean and dry to avoid the influence of dust or moisture on the printing effect.


By following the above steps and precautions, you can effectively adjust the printing temperature of the enhanced wax based carbon ribbon to achieve the best printing effect.
