IX. CLEANING THE DRIVE ROLLER
QuatroÕs Drive Roller should be cleaned during every ribbon
change or after every 250 prints. This helps to prevent jams and
maintain uninterrupted service. Also perform this procedure if
the roller is noticeably dirty. Use the following steps to clean
the roller:
1. Leave the power ON and open the printerÕs Top Cover by
gently grasping the front sides of the cover and lifting
upward. The cover will tilt open from front-to-back.
2. Open the Printhead Assembly by gently pulling up on the
assemblyÕs Release Tab and lifting upward. Allow the
assembly to swing completely open.
3. Remove the ribbon, and locate the Drive Roller.
4. Use a Cleaning Pad from the Printer Cleaning Kit or a soft,
lint-free cloth slightly moistened with isopropyl alcohol to
wipe the roller clean. Press the on/cancel and on-line
buttons to move the roller back and forth while cleaning.
5. After the roller is clean and completely dry, re-install the
ribbon and close the Printhead Assembly and Top Cover.
X. MAINTAINING THE CLEANING ROLLERS
The Cleaning Rollers remove dust particles from a blank card
as it feeds into the printer. Cleaning these rollers will help
prevent contaminated cards from passing beneath the
printhead, thus extending the printheadÕs life and allowing for
higher quality output. The Cleaning Rollers should be cleaned
during every ribbon change or after every 250 prints. Use the
following steps to clean the rollers:
1. Open the Top Cover of the printer by gently grasping the
front sides of the cover and lifting upward. The cover will
tilt open from front-to-back.
2. Open the Printhead Assembly by gently pulling up on the
assemblyÕs Release Tab and lifting upward. Allow the
assembly to swing completely open.
3. Remove the ribbon.
4. Locate the assembly labeled Cleaning Roller.
