Using the magnetic stripe cleaning card
The printer’s magnetic stripe module should be cleaned when the printer has
displayed several magnetic stripe errors that list running the magnetic stripe cleaning
card as a solution. See
“Supplies and cards” on page B-1 for information about
ordering magnetic stripe cleaning cards.
Do not use the magnetic stripe cleaning card more than once every 2000 cards or
excessive wear can result.
Run the magnetic stripe cleaning card
1 Insert a magnetic stripe cleaning card into the exception card slot. Make sure the
arrow is on top and pointing into the printer. (You can also remove the card
cartridge and place the cleaning card on the card input rollers.)
