Horizon Cleaning Kits
The following cleaning kit is available to help you properly maintain
the Horizon imager:

The Horizon Cleaning Kit (catalog no. SP-00130) includes special
wipes that you will need to clean the thermal print head, platen
roller, pick tires, and other internal components.
Some Horizon users may prefer to use the Horizon Cleaning
Cassette to clean the pick tires, rather than using the platen
roller cleaning wipe. The Horizon Cleaning Cassette, part
number SP-00279, can be ordered by contacting your Codonics
representative.
