Reviewing the Ink Cartridges

The CardJet printing process requires that two highly specialized Ink Cartridges are installed:

(1)a color Ink Cartridge and (2) a black Ink Cartridge. Both Cartridges must be installed for the Printer to function. Together, these Ink Cartridges produce all of the rich, colorful graphics, text, bar codes and photographs necessary for producing high-quality cards.

Unlike most other Ink Cartridges, the CardJet Cartridges provide built-in technology which allows the Printer Driver to report:

how many prints remain in each Cartridge,

when ink is running low and

when ink has run out.

This allows you to carefully monitor the ink usage and alerts you when you need to order additional supplies. It also prevents you from printing with an empty Ink Cartridge and wasting partially printed cards.

IMPORTANT! Fargo Card Printers require highly specialized Ink Cartridges 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 Fargo authorized reseller. The part numbers for the currently installed Cartridges can be found in the Print Supplies tab of the Printer Driver.

Storing the Ink Cartridges (review carefully)

Step Procedure

1To maintain excellent print quality from the Ink Cartridges:

Keep all Ink Cartridges in their sealed packages, at room temperature (60- 78° F or 15.6-26.6° C), until you are ready to use them.

Once installed, leave the Ink Cartridges in their cradle at all times to keep them from drying out or becoming clogged.

If you store an unsealed Ink Cartridge, do so in an airtight plastic container.

Caution: Do not unplug the Printer until printing is complete and the Ink Cartridge Cradle has returned to its home position on the right side of the Printer. (Note: The Ink Cartridges will dry out if not stored in their home position.)
