AVALON and AVALON DUO Printer USER MANUAL

Printhead Power:

These options provide control over the degree of printhead ‘heating’ power applied to the cards and dye-film ribbon during the printing process.

Yellow, Magenta, Cyan (YMC):

An increase or decrease in the YMC Power will result in an increase or decrease in the colour density – images will be darkened or lightened.

Black Resin:

An increase or decrease in the Black Resin Power will result in an increase or decrease in the ‘boldness’ of black text and barcodes.

Overcoat:

An increase or decrease in the Overcoat Power will result in an increase or decrease in the visibility of the HoloKote anti-forgery images.

Caution: Very low Overcoat Power settings can cause side effects such as card images fading over time, and also negate the HoloKote® anti-forgery card protection system.

Caution: Very high settings of any of these Printhead Power sliders can cause side effects such as incorrect or distorted colours, breaking of the dye-film ribbon, and even damage to the thermal printhead.

Tip: In the event that the dye-film ribbon breaks due to over-heating,it can be repaired using Adhesive Tape; attach the broken section together and then wind up the black take-up spool by hand for roughly two full turns. Then, before printing again, turn the printer off and back on again and reduce the Power settings so the dye film does not break again.

Image Position:

The Image Position options enable the user to make small adjustments to the position of the printed image on the plastic cards - this can be useful for eliminating unwanted white borders. All adjustments are with reference to the card viewed in landscape.

Up/Down:

Slider moved upwards: the image will move upwards on the card.

Slider moved downwards: the image will move downwards.

The adjustment is calibrated to: 12 steps = 1mm (approx).

Image End:

Slider moved left: the End of the Image will move left (closer to the end of the card).

Slider moved right: the End of the Image will move right (away from the end of the card).

The adjustment is calibrated to: 12 steps =1mm (approx). Note - The Image Start is unaffected.

Caution: Moving the Image End slider too far left can result in the image being printed beyond the end of the card – this will cut the dye-film ribbon.

Image Start:

Slider moved left: the Start of the Image will move left (away from the start of the card).

Slider moved right: the Start of the Image will move right (closer to the start of the card).

The adjustment is calibrated to: 10 steps = 0.1mm (approx).

Note - Any movement of the Image Start position will have a corresponding effect on the Image End position.

Caution: Moving the Image Start slider too far right can result in the image being printed beyond the start of the card – this will cut the dye-film ribbon.

Tip: In the event that the dye-film ribbon breaks due to printing beyond the edges of the card, it can be repaired using Adhesive Tape; attach the broken ends together and then wind up the black take-up spool by hand for roughly two full turns. Then, before printing again, turn the printer off and back on again and change the Image Position settings so the dye film does not break again.
