Common sense for using ink cartridges: How do you store ink cartridges long term?
The correct storage method not only ensures that the ink cartridges are in the best condition when you use, but also effectively extends their service life. Next, we will give you a detailed introduction on how to properly store ink cartridges.
1. How to store ink cartridges?:
Room temperature: Store ink cartridges at room temperature to avoid temperatures that are too high or too low. Follow the temperature range marked on the packaging box. Too high or too low temperatures may damage the performance of the ink cartridges.
Store away from light: Avoid direct sunlight and strong light to prevent the ink from deteriorating.
Keep away from heat sources: Do not place ink cartridges near heat sources, such as heaters or stoves.
Keep sealed: Do not tear off the outer packaging and air hole seal of the ink cartridge before installing it in the printer to protect the ink from being oxidized by air.
Dry storage: Keep the storage environment dry to avoid moisture in the ink cartridges.
Avoid contact with chemicals: When storing ink cartridges, keep them away from any chemicals that may react with them.
For unpacked ink cartridges, try to keep them sealed to reduce ink evaporation.
2. Storage time:
Before installation: As long as they are sealed and stored in suitable conditions, the ink cartridges can be kept in the packaging for a long time, but the specific time varies by brand and model.
After installation: Once the ink cartridge is installed in the printer, we recommend to use it within six months to ensure the best print quality and color performance. Ink cartridges that have not been used for a long time may experience problems such as ink evaporation and nozzle clogging, affecting the printing effect.
Summary:
Following the above storage methods and usage time recommendations can effectively extend the service life of the ink cartridge while ensuring print quality and color performance.
