From day-to-day tasks to big projects and presentations the office printer is a staple for productivity. Businesses count on print jobs everyday and it seems there are only problems when you are in a hurry. Keeping your printers functioning properly and regular cleaning will reduce the need for maintenance calls and draining your budget by replacing expensive office equipment.* Printers range in size and functionality but here are some common tips to helps improve the printer lifespan and reduce poor print quality in the office.
Tips to improve print quality on any printer:
- Keep an eye on expiration dates; ink and toner can dry in the cartridges if not used regularly causing lower quality prints. While dried ink will not harm your printer it will harm print quality.
- Ink and toner cartridges not in use need to be stored in airtight containers, standing upright in a cool location. If you are planning on not using a printer for an extended period of time you can remove the ink and toner cartridges and store them in airtight containers, facing upright in a cool location to save the ink from drying up until you are ready to use the printer again.
