Heat and ink dry up
Hi All
Anyone had any problem with heads drying up in this heat wave. Our room is at 27c.
Anyone use aircon for there room, and does it make a differerce ?
Thanks

We have heat like you are getting, every day in the middle of summer here, never affects the heads on my roland.
I have airconditioning in my office but it is for my benefit, not my printer. On a 38 or 40 deg day here, my airconditioner struggles to get my office cooler than about 28 deg c, never had an issue with dried heads, related to heat, ever.

Thanks Shane … It may be because its not had a great deal of work over the last couple of days.
Must appreciated comments, I am happier about the heat now 🙂

no worries mate.
I run a test print every day that my machine is not working, just to keep them in use.
Seems to do the trick.

Hi there,
I bought an air con unit from homebase. It does cool things down a bit.I work in a large conservatory. 😮 The heads are fine, but I’ve lost about 10 pounds this week :lol1:
I run off a few business stickers for myself every day when I’ve not got a lot of work on the roland.
There’s only been a couple of times when the machine wouldn’t run because its too hot. I try to work first thing in the morning and last thing at night.
Don’t worry……we’ll soon be be moaning about the weather again when it cools off !!!!

I think you will find that some printers respond a little worse than others when the heat hits, our last 2.5m machine had plenty of issues with hot days at times…
I would maybe be more concerned with humidity than heat if the weather is playing up at the moment?
