of its package for more than a few minutes.

1. Power on the printer, if necessary.
2. Unlock the input hopper lock, if present.
3. Open the input hopper cover.
4. Remove any unprinted cards. Handle the cards by
the edges only, or wear card inspection gloves
approved by Entrust Datacard.
5. Load the cleaning card into the input hopper.
If the cleaning card appears bowed, insert it as shown.
6. Close and lock the input hopper, if necessary.
7. Continue with “Run the Isopropanol Cleaning Card”.
If you are cleaning the printer when replacing the ink ribbon, remove both the ink
ribbon and retransfer film cartridges and run the cleaning card with the supplies out
of the printer. This allows the printer to perform a recalibration procedure as part of
the cleaning process. Refer to “Replace the Ink Ribbon” on page 34 and “Replace the
Retransfer Film” on page 38 for more information.
