How to clean your cartridges
1. Use a dry cotton swab and gently brush both sides of the contacts.

solution and gently brush both sides of the contacts. Do not get it overly wet. Wipe clean
with a dry cotton swab.
NOTE: Any type of solution (alcohol or contact cleaner solution) should be the last resort
when cleaning your cartridges. Always try a few dry cotton swabs first.
