Prophylaxis or servicing printers to the last screw
What is prophylaxis
This is a preventive maintenance check of the equipment, usually a complete cleaning, adjustment and inspection of the printer. Regular maintenance will extend the life of the printer.
Why perform prophylaxis
Prophylaxis is like a preventive maintenance check-up, where all stressed parts of the printer are examined.prophylaxis will extend the life of the printer and prevent possible malfunctions or breakdowns.
How often to perform prophylaxis
Our recommendation is once a year, it also depends on the environment the printer is in and how many labels it prints.
If you regularly have your printer adjusted and cleaned every year, you will extend the life of the individual parts, especially the print head, the most expensive part of the printer.
How long does prophylaxis last
For TSC industrial printers, a complete prophylaxis with final testing takes approximately 3 hours. Prophylaxis is also possible at the customer's premises, but we recommend that you do it at our TSC service centre - due to possible spare parts replacements.
With regular prophylaxis you will not only prevent damage, but you will also learn from the technician how to care for your printer and how to simplify the operation of your printer.
