The importance of cleaning the printhead

Proper cleaning of the MAXX 2 printhead is extremely important for maintaining consistent
print quality. The following photographs show a print made before the printhead was cleaned.
Note the raggedness at the start of the print and the visible seaming in the print.
The dirty printhead contributes to a ragged application of the foil to the vinyl. Seaming is
evident and caused by dirt at the extreme ends of the printhead. In the close-up view below, the
ragged start and seaming are clearly visible.
