In this chapter, we suggest that you identify the ordinary service
operations for your Evolis printer that will enable you to ensure a
very high quality of personalization of your plastic cards.
Keep your Warranty in effect !
The factory warranty is subject to strict compliance with ordinary maintenance instruc-
tions, and specifically to compliance with the equipment cleaning cycle intervals.
Failure to comply with the procedures described in this chapter entails cancellation of
the warranty on your printer and its print head.
Evolis will not be liable if the printer is used under non-approved maintenance conditions.
Indeed, the print head is subject to wear and tear. This is a very sensitive component of
the printer of which lifespan can be shortened in case the neighboring environment of the
printer /print head or the cards is not dust-free.
The cards inserted must be clean, dustproof and with no dirt.
Moreover, the frequency and quality of cleanings are key in helping user extend the print
head lifespan. Stick to the instructions mentioned below.

When a cleaning of the card feed module is necessary (every 400 cards
print
ed), the cl
eaning light from the control panel comes on as follows:
This message is an alert that indicates to the operator that it is necessary to perform the cleaning cycle.

In that event, immediately stop the work in progress and proceed with the cleaning.
If there is no maintenance action on your part, the message will remain posted and the
factory warranty will be implicitly invalidated for failure to comply with the contractual
maintenance requirements.
