Manutenzione

1. Cleaning the Kiosk

Regular cleaning helps maintain optimal performance and print quality. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe the exterior surfaces, including the touch screen. For stubborn marks, dampen the cloth slightly with water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid spraying liquids directly onto the kiosk.

Periodically inspect the internal print path for dust or paper debris. Refer to the backstage management system for any recommended internal cleaning procedures or alerts.

1. Aprire il pannello di accesso anteriore.
2. Remove the used paper roll and ribbon cassette.
3. Insert new, genuine HiTi consumables, ensuring they are correctly aligned and seated.
4. Close the access panel. The kiosk will automatically detect the new consumables.
