Scenario B: Error occurs during regular use

STEP1: Clear print head clogs

• Address Print Head Blockage
  • Follow the troubleshooting procedure: Troubleshoot Missing Strip Lines / Failed Printing Sample Test for xTool Apparel Printer
• Maintain Optimal Operating Conditions
  • Keep your printer powered on to maintain automatic maintenance procedures.
  • Operate the printer in suitable temperature and humidity conditions.
  • Use the printer at regular intervals.
  • Perform routine cleaning and maintenance to prevent print head blockages.
• Evaluate Results
  • If the print head cleaning solutions are effective (the printing test shows significant improvement), the issue was likely caused by print head blockage.
  • If printing tests show no improvement even after manual deep cleaning of the print head, proceed to the next solution.

STEP2: Check & clear ink-tube blockages

• Inspect ink tubes for possible clogging.
• Please proceed to the "Still experiencing issues?" section below to contact xTool Customer Service for further diagnosis and assistance.

Preventive measures

To prevent "Severe Nozzle Blockage" errors in the future:

• Keep the Printer Powered On: It's generally recommended to leave your printer powered on (in standby mode). This allows the printer to perform its automatic maintenance cycles, which help prevent ink from drying in the nozzles.
• Maintain Optimal Environment: Operate the printer within the recommended temperature and humidity ranges specified in the user manual. Extreme conditions can affect ink viscosity and promote clogging.
• Use Regularly: Printing periodically (even just a small test print or nozzle check) helps keep the ink flowing. Long periods of inactivity increase the risk of clogging.
• Perform Routine Maintenance: Regularly follow the recommended cleaning and maintenance procedures outlined in your xTool Apparel Printer user manual.
