Thermal Printhead Cleaning Pens

       

Our pens have a white fiber tip that is perfect for removing built up debris on thermal print heads.   The pen tips are saturated with a printer safe cleaning solution.    To use the pen, merely swipe the fiber tip back and forth across the printhead to remove all the contaminants.    After cleaning the printhead, you can wipe the pen tip across a clean paper surface to clean the tip.    Replace the cover and store the pen for the next cleaning!

Our pens come pre-packaged inside cleaning kits with other products designed to clean your entire printer.    They can also be purchased separately in boxes of 12!    Either way, a clean printer is a well functioning printer.   Contact us using any of the methods listed in the left menu bar to obtain more information about our Thermal Printer Cleaning Pens or any of our other cleaning products!   To be taken to our online catalog page for the Thermal Print Head Cleaning Pens, click on either image above or Click Here.



Credit Card / Magnetic Stripe / Thermal Printer Cleaning Card / ESD Clean and Treat Pack

     

   We carry two different types of cleaning cards to meet different markets.   Please click on the image above, OR HERE , for more detailed information on our Magnetic Stripe Reader Cleaning Cards.   The first is our standard flat cleaning card with a soft fuzzy coating for loosening and removing contaminants from your thermal printers.   The second is our Waffle Technology® card that has those patented humps and ridges designed to get into the areas of most magnetic stripe readers where dirt hides and clean it out!

   More and more cards these days are employing an additional method of security where a hologram is covering the magnetic stripe.   This is usually not a problem, but during times of low humidity a static charge can build up on the hologram as it is swiped and the resulting ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) can actually kill the read electronics behind the read head!   Fortunately, RTS has a solution with our ESD Clean and Treat packs.   The packs contain two of our Waffle Technology magnetic stripe reader cleaning cards. One is saturated in our normal IPA solvent for cleaning and the other is a proprietary anti-static solution that helps to eliminate the buildup of static electricty during the card read cycle.   Please follow This link to get more information on our clean and treat packs and to link into our shopping cart area for pricing.

   Many thermal printer manufacturers want you to use only the standard flat cleaning card with a soft fuzzy coating for cleaning since they do not want any of the alcohol based cleaning solution to contaminate the resin side of the print ribbon.   This is an example of where a Waffle Technology® card may not be the best solution.

   For most magnetic stripe / credit card applications, a flat card will do a satisfactory job of cleaning the reading mechanism, but a Waffle Technology card will really remove the dirt!    Please call us and allow us to work with you to determine which card best suits your application!
