Cleaning the Tacky Roller

NOTE - It is very important that these Cleaning Instructions are adhered to in order to maintain the MagiCard print quality.

A Tacky Roller is located between the Cassette and the upper brushstrip. Its purpose is to pick up loose debris, fibres and particles from the upper surface of each card which would otherwise cause a blemish on the finished printed card. Depending on the type of cards used it is recommended that the Tacky Roller is cleaned each time the Card Cassette is filled, to recover its stickiness. Clean the Tacky Roller using a piece of Scotch adhesive tape. Refer to Section E to see how to remove the Tacky Roller.

Cleaning the Rubber Rollers

It is recommended that the Rubber Rollers in the transport mechanism be cleaned after every 1000 cards printed, using the recommended solvent-impregnated Cleaning Card as follows:

CAUTION: Failure to clean the Rubber Rollers may result in mis-registration of images and problems in feeding cards out of the Cassette.

WARNING The recommended cleaning materials are inflammable. Clean the Thermal Printhead in a well-ventilated area and avoid naked flames. Extinguish any cigarettes.
