Accessing the Clean Printer tab
Cleaning the Printer Platen Roller and Card Feed Rollers
Perform this procedure approximately every 1,000 prints to maintain a consistent print
quality. (Note: The Card Feed Rollers move the card throughout the print process. Rollers
should be kept clean to prevent card jams and card contamination. This cleaning process will
ultimately lead to better print quality and extended Printhead life.)
Step Procedure
1 From the HDP5000 Driver, click on the Toolbox button to bring up the Clean
Printer tab.
2 Follow the instructions from the CLEAN PRINTER tab on the Driver. See
Display A below.
(Note: If your Printer is equipped with a Magnetic Encoder, you must insert
the Cleaning Card with the printed side up and with a small Liner Strip towards
the front of the Printer. See Display B below)
3 Replace the printing supplies and close the Print Stations after the Rollers are
clean and completely dry.
