and ensures superior quality. In order to ensure
long life of the printers, the printing
consumables must be maintained properly. Some of
the printing consumables used in laser printers
are laser toners and cartridges, and in inkjet
printers are inkjet toners and cartridges. Print
consumable maintenance is an important aspect in
order to prevent downtime and save
repair/replacement expenses. Cleaning of the
laser toner cartridges and Inkjet toner
cartridges The cartridges need special care when
they are to be cleaned because even slight

In inkjet toner cartridges, if the prints are not
coming despite the cartridge being full of ink,
remove the cartridge from the printer and place
it on a moist paper towel with the print head
surface down. This will ensure that the ink flows
through the cartridge. If the cartridge is dried
up or not working, you can also soak the
problematic cartridge in warm water for two
minutes to remove the obstruction. Moreover, the
cartridge carriage, which holds the toner
cartridges, should also be cleaned regularly,
because otherwise they may become clogged with
dust. Its cleaning is simple as you have to just
remove the carriage and use compressed air to
blow out any dust. Some of the laser printers and
inkjet printers also have automatic cleaning
option that cleanses the toner cartridges from
within and requires no manual assistance.
