output that canÕt be solved by the Standard Head
Cleaning procedure.
1. Open the printerÕs top cover with the Cover
Release Lever.
2. Remove the Ribbon Cartridge from the printer.
3. Use a soft, lint-free cloth soaked lightly with
isopropyl alcohol to wipe off the surface of the

re-installing the Ribbon Cartridge.

local dealer or from FARGO. This kit includes pre-
moistened pads that are ideal for regular print

spray the cloth first and then wipe down the
printer.
