Fixing Paper Jams and Printing Issues on the Punehod L1800 Printer

Question:
I have a Punehod L1800 printer that was previously shooting ink everywhere. After replacing the ink waste system and installing a new printhead, the printer won’t print and keeps encountering paper jams. What could be causing this, and how can I fix it?

Your Punehod L1800 printer's constant paper jams and lack of printing are likely related to an improperly installed capping station. When the capping station isn’t aligned correctly, it can obstruct the movement of the printhead carriage. This blockage prevents the printhead from moving freely across the printer, leading to operational errors such as paper jams.
To resolve this, carefully inspect the capping station’s position. Make sure it’s correctly aligned and securely seated to allow the printhead to move unobstructed. Additionally, verify that no other components were inadvertently misaligned or displaced during replacing the ink waste system and printhead. Once the capping station is adjusted correctly, perform a test to ensure the printhead carriage moves smoothly across the printer.
