3. Allow the printhead to thoroughly dry before closing the cover.
4. Shut the cover. If a streak persists, contact your dealer for further assistance.
D. CLEANING THE PRINTER’S CASE
The printer has a durable casing that should retain its luster and appearance for
many years. Clean it only with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild
soap. Do not use excess water or cleaning solvents of any kind. Never spray the
cabinet with a cleaner. Rather, spray the cloth first, then wipe down the printer.
E. CLEANING THE INSIDE OF THE PRINTER
As you use your printer, dust and other foreign particles may accumulate inside the
printerÕs case. These particles are attracted to the underside of the ribbon by static
produced during printing and can cause voids on the printed image. Periodically,
use the following procedure to remove dust and other foreign particles:
1. Open the printerÕs Top Cover(s).
2. Remove the ribbon (and overlaminate if using Pro-L) from the printer.
3. Use a Cleaning Pad from the Printer Cleaning Kit or a soft, lint-free cloth
slightly moistened with isopropyl alcohol to wipe out all visible areas inside
the printer. Remove any debris that may be inside. Be extremely careful not to
let any alcohol drip inside the printer!
4. Once the cleaned areas are completely dry and free of foreign debris, re-install
the ribbon and overlaminate, and close the cover(s).
F. CLEARING A CARD JAM
If a card becomes jammed inside the printer, the LCD Display will indicate
approximately where it is jammed. At this point you can either try to correct the
problem and continue printing with the same card, or remove the card completely
and continue printing with a new card. Refer to the following steps for instructions
on doing either:
1. Leave the power ON, and open of the printerÕs Top Cover(s).
2. Remove the ribbon (and overlaminate if using Pro-L) as needed.
3. If you would like to try to correct the problem and continue printing with
the same card, do so by pressing the On/Cancel button to advance the card or
the Pause/Resume button to reverse the card. Use these buttons to help free the
