Thank you all! Great info here about controlling temperatures and humidity, which I also believe can really affect (effect?) how much use you get out of your print heads!
My previous location had well over 2,000 square feet of space, had about 10 really long windows in it, 2 sets of double doors, and 2 single doors. We had all sorts of problems with cracked and warped frames on windows and doors, big air leaks under the doors, and even a few rodents! Yuch! It was located on the side of an old 1940's Military hangar, used previously during wartime. Basically, a very large barn, with airplanes rather than cows. With Seattle rain, Historically, a very cool place to be, and I do love airplanes! However, with the humidity,fluctuating temps and really no way to control any of it, my poor Latex machine wasn't happy, I'm sure!
Since our move to new location early this year, we have somewhere between 1/4 to 1/3 the space, but a much better situation for controlling the temperature. It's brand new construction and due to the fact that the Landlord had done and excellent job insulating to make it more sound proof, it is also very controllable for temperature! Through the winter months, I rarely had to turn on the heat. I miss the airplanes though!
Anyhow, I'm hoping to do more printing in the new space and hopefully will get some better results from this wonderful printer!
