Pro-L Card Printer User’s Manual
A. SUPPLIES REQUIRED
For the maintenance procedures outlined in this section, you will need the
following items:
n Isopropyl alcohol
n Acetone
n Standard clear adhesive tape or masking tape
n Soft, lint-free cloth
Or, to make these maintenance procedures more convenient, a Printer Cleaning Kit
is available from your authorized reseller. This optional kit includes the following:
n Printhead Cleaning Pens pre-moistened with 99.99% isopropyl alcohol for
cleaning your printer’s printhead.
n Cleaning Cards with an adhesive backing for automatically cleaning your
printer’s gray card feed rollers and cleaning rollers.
n Cleaning Pads pre-moistened with 99.99% isopropyl alcohol for cleaning your
printer’s drive roller and general inside area.
IMPORTANT! 1. Never use a sharp tool or abrasive object of any kind to clean the printhead. You
will damage the printhead!
2. Watches, rings, bracelets, and other jewelry can damage the printhead if
accidentally bumped against it. For best results, remove such items before touching
any internal components of printer.
3. As with any electronic device, internal components of the printer, such as the
printhead, may be damaged if exposed to static electrical discharges. To avoid
potential damage, always wear an appropriate personal grounding device, such as
a wrist strap (with integral resistor) connected to an ESD ground. Or, at a
minimum, make positive contact with the bare metal chassis of the printer with
your hand prior to touching any internal electrical components.
