RESTRICTED USE ONLY Fargo Electronics, Inc. Functional Specifications The Card Printer utilizes two different, yet closely related printing technologies to achieve its remarkable print quality for dye-sublimation and resin thermal transfer. The following describes how each of these technologies works: Function Description DyeSublimation Dye-Sublimation is the print method the Card Printer uses to produce smooth, continuous-tone images that look photographic.
RESTRICTED USE ONLY Fargo Electronics, Inc. Printer Components: Resin Thermal Transfer to USB Interface Port Component Description Resin Thermal Transfer Resin Thermal Transfer is the print method the Printer uses to print sharp black text and crisp bar codes that can be read by both infrared and visible-light bar code scanners.
RESTRICTED USE ONLY Fargo Electronics, Inc. Printer Components: LCD and Softkey Control Pad The Printer provides a two line, thirty-two (32) characters LCD Display that can communicate helpful information about the Printer's operation. The bottom line of the LCD Display will always be used to communicate the current function of the Printer's softkey buttons. This section describes how the LCD Display and Softkey Control Pad work together.
RESTRICTED USE ONLY Fargo Electronics, Inc. • TRANSFERRING: Indicates the Printer is transferring an image to a blank card. • LAM: Indicates the Lamination Station is applying an overlaminate to a card (appears only if using a Printer equipped with the optional Card Lamination Module. The Print Status screen always displays Cancel in the lower left and Pause in the lower right. The Cancel button Use this button to cancel print jobs and reset the Printer for the next print job.
RESTRICTED USE ONLY Fargo Electronics, Inc. Printer Components: Print Ribbons The Card Printer utilizes both dye-sublimation and/or resin thermal transfer methods to print images (print to film and transfer film to card). Since the dye-sublimation and the resin thermal transfer print methods each provide their own unique benefits, Print Ribbons are available in dye-sublimation-only and combination dye-sublimation/resin versions.
RESTRICTED USE ONLY Fargo Electronics, Inc. Printer Components: Blank Cards Caution: Never run cards with a contaminated, dull or uneven surface through the Printer. Printing onto such cards will ultimately lead to poor print quality. Always store the card stock in its original packaging or in a clean, dust-free container. Do not print onto cards that have been dropped or soiled. Type Description Card Size These Card Printers accept standard CR80 sized cards (3.375L x 2.125W / 85.
RESTRICTED USE ONLY Fargo Electronics, Inc. Printer Components: Card Input and Output Hoppers Type Description Card Cartridge The Card Cartridge will hold a maximum of 100 cards (based on a standard 30 mil card thickness). Printer Components: Card Output Hopper and Reject Hopper Type Description Card Output Hopper HDP5000/HDP5000-LC: All standard HDP Card Printers provide a 200 card capacity Card Output Hopper (based on a standard 30 mil card thickness).
RESTRICTED USE ONLY Fargo Electronics, Inc. Printer Components: Transfer Roller Danger: The Printer’s Transfer Roller can reach temperatures exceeding 350 degree F (175 C). Use extreme caution when operating the Transfer Roller. Never touch the Transfer Roller unless the Printer Power has been turned off for at least 20 to 30 minutes. Type Description Controls Both the Printer itself and the Printer’s software Driver control the built-in Transfer Roller.
RESTRICTED USE ONLY Fargo Electronics, Inc. Reviewing the Overlaminates Important! Fargo Card Printers require highly specialized overlaminates to function properly. To maximize Printer life, reliability, printed card quality and durability, you must use only Fargo Certified Supplies. For this reason, the Fargo warranty is void, where not prohibited by law, if you use non-Fargo Certified Supplies. To order additional materials, please contact the authorized reseller.
RESTRICTED USE ONLY Fargo Electronics, Inc. Reviewing the Overlaminate Design Term Description Cross Reference Design Both PolyGuard and the Thermal Transfer Film overlaminates are available in either a clear or generic secure holographic-type design. (Note: Custom holographic-type overlaminates are also available with specific designs, patterns, logos and security features.) See the Loading the Overlaminate. . Please contact the authorized reseller for more information about custom Overlaminates.
