To ensure the quality of the enhanced hybrid carbon ribbon, the following points should be noted during storage:
1、 Storage environment
Temperature control:
The recommended storage temperature range is between -5 ℃ and 40 ℃, but there are also claims of 3 ℃ to 10 ℃ or 5 ℃ to 35 ℃. Regardless of the range, high or low temperatures should be avoided, as extreme temperatures may cause carbon ribbon aging, deformation, or performance degradation.
Humidity management:
The humidity should be controlled between 20% and 85%. Excessive humidity may cause the carbon ribbon to become damp, affecting the printing effect; If the humidity is too low, it may make the carbon ribbon dry and fragile.
2、 Storage method
Sealed storage:
Seal the enhanced mixed carbon ribbon in the packaging to prevent dust, impurities, and chemicals from entering. This helps to maintain the cleanliness and stable performance of the carbon ribbon.
Avoid direct sunlight:
When storing, direct sunlight should be avoided as the ultraviolet rays in sunlight may cause damage to the carbon ribbon.
Regular inspection:
Regularly check the stored carbon ribbon to ensure that it is in good condition. If signs of deformation, aging, or damage are found on the carbon, they should be dealt with promptly.
3、 Other precautions
Avoid prolonged exposure:
Avoid prolonged exposure of carbon ribbon to harsh environments such as high temperature, high humidity, direct sunlight, or chemical erosion.
Usage period:
Carbon ribbon generally has a recommended lifespan, and even under suitable storage conditions, it is not recommended to store it for a long time. Usually, the shelf life of carbon ribbon does not exceed two years, and some products may have a shorter shelf life. Therefore, carbon ribbon should be used as soon as possible within its shelf life.
Avoid mechanical damage:
During transportation and storage, mechanical damage to the carbon ribbon, such as scratches, indentations, etc., should be avoided. These damages may affect the printing effect and service life of the carbon ribbon.
In summary, in order to ensure the quality of the enhanced hybrid carbon ribbon, it is necessary to strictly control environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity during storage, take measures such as sealed storage and avoiding direct sunlight, and regularly check the condition of the carbon ribbon. Meanwhile, attention should also be paid to avoiding prolonged exposure and mechanical damage.
