A small trick to improve the print quality of plain paper photos

Since the inkjet printer is not too expensive, it can achieve a very realistic effect when printing images, and it is also very convenient in operation. Therefore, many individual users or home users are willing to choose inkjet printers to print materials.

However, when using an inkjet printer to output images, if you use our common printing paper to output, the realistic effect of image output will often be greatly reduced, and even the output effect is difficult to see; to improve the output, you can use professional photos Print paper is output, but the price of photo-quality printing paper is often unacceptable to ordinary individual users.

So, is there any way for us to use inkjet printers to produce better print results when outputting images? Xiao Bian after many groping, found a relatively simple and feasible method, I hope this method can give you spray to help users.

First of all, we have to understand why plain paper does not print well. The reason why ordinary paper is used to output images is that it does not produce very good print results, mainly because ordinary paper does not perform well in terms of water absorption performance, and these ordinary papers Compared with professional photo paper, it is much thinner.

In this way, after the ink in the inkjet printer is sprayed onto ordinary printing paper, the ink cannot be absorbed in time. When the image is output, we will find that the printing paper at this time has a very moist feeling, especially in some colors. Deeper positions, the ink color even penetrates into the back of the thin printing paper, this may cause the local area of ​​the paper to be distorted, and the ink color in the local area will have some infiltration phenomenon with each other, which will eventually lead to us Unable to get ideal image output.

According to the above analysis, Xiao Bian thinks that as long as you think of ways to increase the speed of ink absorption by ordinary printing paper, you can improve the jetting output effect. The author is following the following methods: Before using ordinary printing paper, look for For an ordinary household iron, if the iron has a steam function, be sure to turn off the steam function first; then, like ironing clothes, press the ordinary paper to be used evenly for a few seconds to ensure that the paper is printed. More even and smooth; when you feel that the paper is slightly hot, immediately put it into the printer and execute the print command.

In this way, due to the increase in the temperature of the surface of the printing paper, the ink sprayed on the surface can quickly be evaporated and dried in a short time to avoid the mutual penetration of the ink, so that the resulting image can be felt Sharper and clearer, thus ensuring better printing results.

Of course, when using this method, we must pay attention to control the temperature of the printed paper when it is heated; when the temperature of paper that is usually ironed is around 70°C, the surface temperature of the paper will not be within 1 minute. If the temperature of the surface of the paper is overheated, the printed paper may become hard and brittle, resulting in slight deformation of the paper. Of course, printing with deformed paper cannot be satisfactorily performed. If the color of the ink appears discolored when you use ironed paper to output the image, you should lower the surface temperature of the paper appropriately.
