    After cleaning the printhead, the print out is still completely blank. What could be the issue?

    • @KingdomDTF

      Do ink charge or a few regular cleaning cycle to bring ink to the head.

    • @KingdomDTF

      Try to clean you printhead underneath and wiper. Check dampers, do nozzle check and print something yellow like a sun design to see if black continue to show. Is probably you head need a replacement if that happen.

      Inks can get dry fast if the room temp is not good. To cold or to hot is not good.

    How can I manually loosen the carrier if I already undid power??

    • @KingdomDTF
      @KingdomDTF  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      When you turn on the printer once the print head move to the left side cut the power, that makes the head loose.

  • @aikzousu_

    How do you unlock the cartridge carriage? Mine is locked at the left side of the printer and cant seem to move it. So it is impossible for me to remove the parts.

    • @KingdomDTF
      @KingdomDTF  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      When you turn on the printer and head start to move, disconnect the power cord and the head will be lose and able to move so you can take out or do maintenance.

      if you clean it with solution maybe still inside the nozzle. Try to clean with distilled water only.

      Verify that ink tank is open, cartridges have ink in it, and the head is not clog.

    • @KingdomDTF

      Is possible your print head is clog, for that you need to use cleaning solution.

    Hello, I am currently facing a problem with the Syringe method for my white ink. The ink doesn't seem to move from the damper to the syringe and there was a lot of resistance when I pull on the syringe. I tried your method but the problem still persist, do you have any idea how can I solve my issue?

    • @KingdomDTF
      @KingdomDTF  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Need to check that the nozzle or the lines is not clog. I recommend changing the damper if is damage.

    Hi, how often we need to do flushing ?

    • @KingdomDTF
      @KingdomDTF  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Every time you want to change ink brand, go to vacation or have clogs in the lines, that's for flushing.
      Maintenance on printhead is recommended every day for the white ink. That's why is important to do nozzle check to see what channel need maintenance.

  • @nextclass3002
    @nextclass3002 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Is this printhead R1390? Also, is DTF ink thinner than DTG ink, so the head gets clogged less frequently?

    • @KingdomDTF
      @KingdomDTF  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Correct, but is recommended anyway to do maintenance. The printhead can work for 1390, l1800 and other similar models.

      Clean with cleaning solution, but if is to clog then is better a new print head.

      Both are good heads for dual head printers, 4720 less expensive than i32. On this video is just a regular head for L1800.

      Verify the settings of the software. Also make sure you prime first the dampers and do an ink charge so the head get ink for the first time.

    • @KingdomDTF

      You need to keep an eye on the prints. If you print a lot 1 per week could be ok. Doing maintenance is important to keep printer running good.

    @slplktr 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Cleaning the outside will just make it look clean but will offer no improvement if you have clogging issues. The clog is usually inside the head. Sometimes, it's in the manifold. Sometimes, in the dampers. I also see no test result showing improvement in white ink in this video.

    • @KingdomDTF
      @KingdomDTF  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The video was to show people how to clean it underneath and remove the gum if they remove the head, some people don't remove the head and they just use a cloth a way they can and move head right and left without knowing they are scratching the head.
      Also good tips.

    You still don’t need to take the print head folks!!!
    Just put a good paper towel under it with printhead solution and clean it back and forth you never have to take it out unless you really have too

    • @KingdomDTF
      @KingdomDTF  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      That’s another video I have. This is for when dry ink build under print head and you need to take out and a simple paper towel will not do.
