Automated Printhead Cleaning
1. Remove media and ribbon.
2. Place a Datamax-O’Neil Cleaning Card, part number 70-2013-01 under the printhead. Lower
and lock the printhead. Ensure that the Media Width Adjustment is not
engaged.
3. Press and hold the TEST Key for approximately four seconds.
The printer will begin the cleaning routine.
4. In cases of heavy build-up, or if high heat values are typically used for printing, flip the card
over and repeat Step 3.
5. Reinstall your ribbon and media (if necessary, readjust the Media Width Adjustment, see
Section 5.3). Lower and lock the printhead. Close the cover.
