4-3c REPLACING THE CLEANING ROLLERS
Should your cleaning roller start to work less effectively despite regular maintenance, it is advisable to replace it in order to avoid dirt
accumulating on the print head, resulting in permanent damage (See section 3 – Maintenance).
The cleaning roller is available as a consumable from your MagTek dealer.
Roller replacement procedure:
1. Open the printer cover.
2. Remove the ribbon if any then locate the cleaning roller and release it from its housing.
3. Fit the new roller in the printer, ensuring that it is correctly positioned in the housing.
4. Replace the ribbon and then close the printer cover.
4-3d REPLACING THE PRINT HEAD
The print head is a sensitive component of your equipment. It determines the print quality, and regular servicing along with an immediate
environment free from dust or other particles ensure a lengthy useful life. Nonetheless, the print head may sometimes need to be
replaced. MagTek has designed a unique device enabling users to undertake such replacement with no tools needed, simply by following
the instructions very carefully. Before doing anything else, please contact your MagTek dealer in order to check the advisability of
replacing the print head. The dealer will supply a new print head if need be.
MagTek has set up a scheme for exchanging defective print heads during the printer’s warranty period. Your equipment is eligible under
the scheme if:
• You use only MagTek consumables (ribbons and maintenance products).
• You have followed the cleaning and servicing cycles scrupulously.
• You are working in a dust-free environment complying with the technical specifications
• You are using flat cards, with no rough patches which could damage the print head surface
