HID FARGO 086177 Card Printer Cleaning Kit
The genuine HID FARGO 086177 cleaning kit contains 4 printhead cleaning swabs, 10 cleaning cards and 3 alcohol cleaning cards — everything needed for the routine HID recommends: clean the printer at every ribbon change. HID lists 086177 as the cleaning kit for the DTC1250e, DTC1500, DTC4250e and DTC4500e.
Key Features
Three Cleaning Consumables in One Box
Four printhead cleaning swabs, ten cleaning cards and three iso-propyl alcohol cleaning cards, packed as one HID part number so there is nothing to source separately.
Clean at Every Ribbon Change
HID recommends cleaning the printer with each ribbon change to ensure the best performance and to maintain long-term printer reliability. One kit covers several changes.
Protects the Printhead You Paid For
HID states that cleaning keeps the printer clear of the dust, debris and build-up that degrade printer performance over time. A replacement 300 dpi printhead kit is part number 047500.

HID recommends cleaning the printer with each ribbon change, to ensure the best performance and to maintain long-term printer reliability. HID also notes that cleaning keeps the printer clear of the dust, debris and build-up that can degrade printer performance over time — which is why the cleaning cadence is tied to the ribbon, not to a calendar.
