What Do We Mean by Industrial or Commercial Printing Equipment?
Businesses, retailers, and industrial enterprises can take advantage of imaging equipment and commercial printers in many ways. Some applications with which AES has extensive experience include commercial & retail photo printing equipment and self-service photo kiosks. These integrated systems can be used to display product information, print photos, print documents, print tickets, and more in a seamless fashion. They’re incredibly practical and convenient, plus they can save you a good bit of money versus outsourcing these services to external vendors.
These systems are comprised of much more than just the essential printing equipment itself. They also can include several other integrated components and devices. These devices can include intuitive touchscreens, displays, monitors, keyboards, input buttons, cameras, scanners, and various types of computer hardware and memory systems. An issue with any one of these individual components can compromise the function of your connected printing or other output mechanisms.
Common Issues & Challenges with Industrial & Commercial Printers
It’s an understatement to say that we now live in a digital age, but there are still many practical applications and needs for printed photos, documents, and other hard copy. Whenever there’s a problem with one or more components of your imaging system that can really put a damper on your business processes, and can possibly limit your ability to generate some of your products as well.
Here are some common industrial printer and commercial printer equipment issues you could face:
Printer Driver Errors
Sometimes, your hardware seems to be in good condition (as far as you can tell), but your printer could still be throwing up an error message. In this instance, one of your first moves should be to ensure that all of your software drivers are up-to-date.
Clogged Printheads
If your print jobs aren’t propagating properly, then in many cases, your print heads themselves might be the culprit. Sometimes all they’ll need is a thorough cleaning, but in other cases, the print heads might require rebuilding or even replacing.
Printer Jams or Clogs
If your paper, card stock, or photo stock is getting stuck on a regular basis, the issue could be with the rollers, belts, and gears which move your hard copy through the system. Failure to maintain these essential components can result in slow printing, jams, or complete printing failures. These components can and do wear out, and may require refurbishing or replacing.
Hard-to-Find Replacement Parts
Sometimes you’re able to figure out where the problem lies, but you simply don’t have the parts, tools, or experience to be able to address the issue. In the circumstances like these, it’s best to partner with an imaging repair professional like AES. Not only do we have extensive experience in working with equipment like this, but we also keep a wide range of essential parts (including some hard-to-find parts) in stock.
