Cleaning the Card Feed and Cleaning Rollers

The Card Feed Rollers move the card throughout the print process. (Note: The Cleaning Roller removes dust particles from a blank card as it feeds into the Printer. Clean these rollers to prevent card jams and card contamination and ensure better print quality and extended Printhead life.)

Step

Procedure

 

 

1

a. Ensure a consistent Printer operation by cleaning these rollers approximately

 

every 250 prints or during every ribbon change, depending on the

 

cleanliness of the card stock and the environment (in which the Printer is

 

located).

 

b. Clean the rollers if the rollers appear dirty or if the cards start showing

 

speckles or debris on the printed surface by following Steps 2 to 7 (below).

 

 

2

Leave the Printer power ON and open the Printer's Top Cover.

 

 

3

Remove all cards from the Printer's Card Input Hopper.

 

 

4

Get a Cleaning Card from the Printer Cleaning Kit and remove its adhesive

 

backing paper.

 

 

5

Insert the Cleaning Card into the card output end of the Printer until the card

 

stops.

 

Caution: Be sure to insert the card so that the longest end of the card

 

is inserted first with the sticky side facing up.
