Giving A Second Life To Your Print Heads
We can usually recover 99% or more of the nozzle. Prior to removing the clogged print head, print a jet nozzle test pattern showing the clogged jet areas. Include this test pattern with the clogged heads, wrap each print head in a Saran Wrap and package it according to the manufacturer's recommendations after cleaning. We record the print head serial number along with the type of cleaning or storage fluid that was last flushed through the head.
Please make sure to include your contact information with your print heads. We will contact you as soon as we have the recovery result.
