Using the duplex/laminator cleaning card
If your printer includes a duplex module, a topcoat module, or an overlay module, use
the duplex/laminator cleaning card to maintain card quality and reduce the likelihood
of jammed cards in the duplex and laminator modules.
Use the duplex/laminator cleaning card once a month or when problems occur, such
as repeated card jams in the overlay or topcoat module. See “Supplies and cards” on
page B-1 for ordering information.
Use the duplex/laminator cleaning card
If the printer has a locking card cartridge, unlock the cartridge before removing it.
1 Remove the card cartridge and set it aside.
If the print ribbon sticks to the duplex/laminator cleaning card, remove the
print ribbon and repeat this procedure with a new cleaning card.
2 Peel the middle strip of protective paper from both sides of the duplex/laminator
cleaning card (see Figure 4-9).
The outside protective paper strips must stay on the card.
