30 System Maintenance
Run a Cleaning Card
Run a cleaning card to clean debris from the inside of the printer and from the input hopper
rollers. The cleaning card can remove most contaminants from the printer. Run a cleaning card
after every 500 cards processed by the printer, or more often depending on your environment, or
if print quality diminishes.
