2.
Remove the print ribbon from the cartridge and set it aside.
3.
Make sure that the cleaning roller with the replaceable cleaning sleeve is installed.
4.
Return the print ribbon cartridge to the printer.
5.
Close the printer cover. Press down on the ridges on the front of the cover to make sure that
it latches completely on both sides.
6.
Have rewritable cards available to insert into the printer.
To print rewritable cards, you also must do the following:

Enable rewritable printing in Printer Manager.
Use the rewritable card settings to enable the rewrite option and specify the values to use.
Refer to “Print” on page 44 for complete information about the Printer Manager settings.

Specify rewritable card settings in the Card Printer Driver.
For complete information about setting up the Card Printer Driver to print rewritable cards,
refer to your printer’s Driver Guide .
When you print rewritable cards, insert the cards one at a time. Make sure that the
card is engaged in the pick rollers. The erase/rewrite process can cause the cards to
bend slightly, which may prevent them from being picked from the input hopper.
