Open the ribbon drawer and remove both the ribbon and the cleaning roller. Next replace the ribbon drawer. Remove the paper cover from the cleaning card. If the printer has a magnetic encoder do not remove the paper strip at the bottom of the card. Remove the protective cover from the reverse side of the card.
