The filter replacement kit (1060978) provides a new IDM filter and
two new O-rings. This procedure is best performed while the IDM is
hot.
8.1 What You Will Need
• 2.5mm Allen wrench
• Protective glove or pliers (to prevent touching hot surfaces)
• Markem-Imaje Printhead Wipe
8.2 Preparation
1. Power off the Model 5200/5400 and disconnect the power cable.
2. Remove the front cover by loosening the five large captive
screws.
NOTE: The ground wire may need to be disconnected from the print
station.
8.3 Removal
1. Using the 2.5mm Allen wrench, remove the two screws holding
the filter (Figure 6-16). Set one of the screws aside for use with
the new filter.
2. Place the other screw into one of the threaded holes on the filter
top, and tighten this screw until the filter has begun to lift out of
the holding chamber.
