This cleaning card is essential to maintain the barcode information printed on an airline bag tag affixed to the luggage. The barcode contains the important destination information of the bag and can be read incorrectly if the barcode has imperfections. These imperfections are caused by dirt particles that inhibit the print head from proper contact with the bag tag label stock, causing erroneous lines to appear and break the barcode. This cleaning card removes burnt on paper particles that build up on a bag tag thermal print head. It is the most versatile method of cleaning a print head as it does not require the print head to be easily accessible or exposed. In most cases, with the power off, you insert it as you would the bag tag label stock and just pull the card through. It is recommended by thermal printer manufacturers to clean the print head with every change of label stock for crisp printed bag tags.

EZ Wipes are Cleaning Wipes for Bag Tag Printers
This thermal printer cleaning wipe is designed to use on thermal printers that have an accessible print head. The EZ Wipe, presaturated with 99.7% IPA solution, will also clean platen rollers and other interior or exterior surfaces of the printer. Adding a little pressure as you move the wipe across the print head, you will gently scrub the burnt on particles from the print head. This will allow the heat from the print head to properly transfer to the bag tag label. It is recommended by thermal printer manufacturers to clean the print head with every change of label stock for crisp printed bag tags.
