Credit card reader cleaning cards
The cleaning card is essential to the consistent credit card and debit card reads on your swipe or dip ATM’s or POS Terminals. A credit card has oils and dirt on its surface. With every swipe into your credit card reader these contaminates are transferred into the card reader and onto the magnetic heads. This accumulation of dirt and oils is 80% of the reason why these readers fail. The use of cleaning cards will prolong the life of the reader.
Receipt Printer cleaning cards
This cleaning card removes burnt on paper particles that build up on a receipt printer’s thermal print head. This print head minimum temperature is 158 degrees Fahrenheit which will burn foreign material to the print head causing streaks and fading of the printed receipt. It is recommended by thermal printer manufacturers to clean the print head with every change of paper receipt stock. If you are using a Bixolon SRP or SLP Thermal Receipt Printer or Transact Ithaca 8000/8040 Printers be sure to use the products approved for their printers.
Screen Wipe for touch screen monitors, Plasma and LCD screens
The screen wipe contains a wet wipe to remove finger prints and static from the sensitive surfaces of today’s monitors. The dry wipes removes the excess moisture for a clean streak free surface. This product is best used when the monitor or screen is cool. The wipes may also be used on other surfaces such as the plastic casing around the monitors.
Keyboard cleaning swabs
The key swabs is designed to get in between keys on computer keyboards (or keyboards of similar design), calculator keys or to clean around small raised surface keys. This will remove particles that may cause keys to stick when used.
Motorized ATM credit card reader cleaning cards
The cleaning card is essential to the consistent credit card and debit card reads in your ATM’s that take the credit card into the equipment. A credit card has oils and dirt on its surface. With every transaction these contaminates are transferred into the card reader and onto the magnetic heads. This accumulation of dirt and oils is 80% of the reason why these readers fail. This specialized card is designed to open the sentry gates of the reader so that the card is taken in as if it was a credit card. By doing so it passes over the read heads and effectively cleans them. The use of cleaning cards will prolong the life of the reader.
Check Scanner cleaning cards
The cleaning card removes endorsement ink build up from scanner lens covers, check transport rollers and belts. The check is printed just prior to passing the lens and other critical areas of the scanner to make it a legal document. The removal of this ink build up is essential to the clarity of a legal document which could potentially display an erroneous decimal point or worse if not properly maintained. The cleaning card will also remove paper dust and dirt from the check pathways to maintain a clean and working unit. Each manufacturer has a unique design for their scanner so a product should be used that is endorsed by the manufacture of the check scanner.
Currency counter cleaning cards
The cleaning card cleans and lubricates the feed rollers while also cleaning the note recognition lenses of the currency counter. These lenses are critical in to the smooth and accurate counting of currency. Additional debris in the currency counter pathway is also removed.
Check Reader cleaning cards
The cleaning card cleans the magnetic read heads, feed rollers and pathway to maintain consistent check reads. Dirt will build up within this narrow check feed pathway and keep the magnetic head from properly reading the magnetic ink account information on the bottom of the check. A regular preventive maintenance program will reduce errors significantly.

killing germs on surfaces such as doorknobs, office equipment and grocery cart handles.
