Cleaning and Care
To ensure that your SmartDate X60 operates correctly, the entire unit should be cleaned
on a regular basis.
Printer:
Particular attention should be given to the inside of the printer body, especially if food
products are able to fall into the unit.
- Turn off the power to the controller.
- Turn off and isolate the air supply to the printer body.
- Remove the printer cassette and clean inside the printer body. Since there are elec-
tronic components inside this casing, DO NOT use water to clean the unit. Isopropanol
cleaning wipes can be used for this purpose.
- To clean debris from the inside of the printer body, Markem-Imaje recommend the use
of a soft bristle brush.
