buildup.

• Clean the card input sensor.
• Check the position of the card input sensor and make sure
it is firmly seated.
• Check the operation of the card input sensor using the
sensor screen in Printer Diagnostics.
• If the sensor is always blocked, it is either disconnected, or

circuit, or the sensor is not seated at all (outside of the card
track).
