Most card jams are caused by dirty rollers. Clean the laminator at the same 
time that you clean the printer. If you are using the laminator as a stand-alone 
unit, clean the laminator every 1,000 cards.

Press the MENU key on the laminator LCD panel until "Cleaning" is 
displayed.

To clean the transport roller only:

Press the ENTER key and "Without HR" is displayed.

Press the ENTER key and "Cleaning OK" is displayed.

Press the ENTER key and cleaning starts.

To clean the transport roller and heat roller:

Press RESET and then ENTER and "With HR" is displayed.

Press ENTER and "Film removed?" is displayed.

Remove the laminator cartridge, remove patch or topcoat material, 
replace the empty cartridge into the laminator, and close the 
laminator door.

Press the ENTER key and "Cleaning OK?" is displayed.

Remove the protective paper 
from the cleaning card and press 
the ENTER key.

Slide the cleaning card into the 
card discharge slot. The card will 
be drawn into the laminator and 
will exit from the same slot when 
cleaning is complete.

Press the EXIT key twice to exit the 
cleaning menu.

Reload and initialize the material.

When the heat roller is 
at operating 
temperature, “HR is too 
hot” is displayed on the 
LCD display. Turn 
power OFF and allow 
unit to cool for 
approximately 30 
minutes before starting 
the cleaning sequence.

Use a cleaning card one 
time only. Using a dirty 
cleaning card can 
cause card jams.
