Cleaning Supplies Keeping your card printer clean is essential to getting high-quality prints. We recommend the use of cleaning wipes, as well as sticky cleaning cards, on a regular basis, usually after every roll of ribbon used. Your printer may also come equipped with a cleaning roller or tape, which needs to be replaced as soon as it becomes dirty. Click on the link above to learn more or purchase cleaning supplies.
