What is the proper way to use printhead cleaning cards?
For the ATX 23/24/38, ITK 23/24, ITX 2000/3000, GTX 2000/3004A Printers • Turn off the power to the printer. • Lift the printhead lever. • Remove the ticket stock from the printer. • Insert a cleaning card between the printhead and drive roller. • Put the printhead lever down. • Enter the Printhead Cleaning Mode through the printer’s Power-on Switch Panel Operation. Refer to the printer’s User’s Manual for specific instructions for entering this mode. Once in this mode, the printer’s panel switches will permit the cleaning card to be moved, back and forth, under the printhead. • Clean the printhead by driving the cleaning card back and forth several times. • Clean the drive roller by firmly holding the cleaning card at the rear of the printer while the drive roller is pulling on the card in the forward direction. This will cause the roller to slip against the card and wipe itself clean. • Turn power off and remove the cleaning card. Allow the printhead and roller to dry for several min
