Cleaning the Printer's Exterior
The Printer has a durable casing that should retain its luster and appearance for many
years. Clean it only with a Cleaning Pad from the Printer Cleaning Kit. (Note: See the
next section for a photo of Printer’s exterior.)
Caution: Do not use cleaning solvents of any kind or spray the printer with a
cleaner!
Cleaning the Printer's Interior
Caution: Dust and other particles can accumulate inside the Printer. These
particles are attracted to the Print Ribbon or blank card by static produced during printing
and can contaminate the printed card causing spots or speckles to appear.
Periodically, use the following procedure to remove dust and other contaminants:
Step Procedure
1 Open the Printer's Top Cover and Print Station.
2 Remove the Print Ribbon from the Printer.
3 Use a Cleaning Pad from the Printer Cleaning Kit to wipe out all visible areas
inside the Printer. Remove any debris within its interior.
Caution: Be extremely careful not to let any alcohol drip inside the
Printer.
4 Re-install the printing supplies and close the Printer.
