Cleaning the Magnetic Encoder (cont.)
Step Procedure
7 Hold the end of the Cleaning Card securely with your thumb and index finger
while you press the BACK button on the LCD display four (4) more times.
(Note: This allows the Roller to spin against the Cleaning Card and fully
clean the Roller.)
See below.
8
Remove the Cleaning Card by pressing the FORWARD button on the LCD
display to eject this card from the Printer.
9
Process is now complete. (Note: This magnetic cleaning process should be
done every time another cleaning is performed, which is roughly every 3,000
cards, or whenever you experience Magnetic Encoding problems.)
10 Be aware that the card can be used only once as it will dry out quickly.
(Note: If the card dries out before you clean the Roller, a new card must be
used.)
