Why Cribheads?

Prepare heads for the next step.

Pre-washing can be useful for heads that have been out of service for days or weeks. The maintenance function also addresses the drying of water-based ink on the nozzle plate when heads are not in use.

Pre-wash

Prepare printheads before the main cleaning process.

Maintain

Care for the nozzle plate while printheads are outside the printer.

Configure

Use model-specific trays and select a fluid programme for your printheads.
