2.4.1.2 Cleaning Card Procedure

This cleaning method is recommended when using direct thermal media, thermal transfer media with a wax

ribbon, or if symptoms persist after performing the cotton swab procedure (see Section 2.4.1.1).

1. Turn OFF and unplug the printer. Wait for the printhead to cool.

2. Raise the Printhead Assembly then remove the media (and ribbon, if installed).

3. Place a Cleaning Card (part number 70-2013-01) under the printhead.

4. Lower and latch the Printhead Assembly.

5. Disengage the Leveling Cam; see Section 2.2.1.

7. Install media (and ribbon, if necessary). Lower and latch the Printhead Assembly. Adjust the Leveling

Cam. Close the cover. Run a few sample labels and examine them. If streaking is still present, go to

Section 2.4.1.3; otherwise, this completes the procedure.
