4 • 3 Cleaning the Laminator Rollers

A cleaning using the Cleaning System with cards usually suffices, moreover your printer is equipped with two cleaning rollers situated before the card enter the Laminator. The upper roller has a coating that collects any loose particles on the surface of cards. However, a separate Laminator Station cleaning can remove more stubborn deposits.

To avoid deposits, only use foam-tipped swabs.

Never touch the rollers with fingers.

WHEN TO MAINTAIN

Cleaning frequency varies with different environments. Clean when lamination anomalies persist.

HOW TO MAINTAIN

1 • Switch OFF your printer and open cover. Make sure the Laminator rollers cool down.

2 • Press down on the unlock lever to open the Laminator braquet.
