Reviewing HDP5000 Card Printer Sequence of Operations (continued)

Step Process

13The Ribbon Drives, Film Drive and Print Platen Stepper turn ON and the Printhead burns the image data until the image data is depleted. All stop. (Note: The Ribbon Encoders and Film Encoders are active during this step.)

14The Headlift Motor engages, moving the Printhead up until the Headlift Sensor is activated. All stop. The Film Drive reverses the Film Position Sensor to print over the image (again).

15Repeat Steps 9 to 14 for the appropriate number of color/heat seal panels.

16The Film Drives turn ON to rewind the printed portion of the Film into position at the heated Transfer Roller using the Lamination Film Alignment Sensor.

17If the heater is not at the required temperature yet, the job will pause.

18Stepper engages to move the card to a position directly over the Transfer Roller. The Card Feed/Position Sensor determines card edge and number of steps to position card. All stop.

19The Headlift Motor turns ON to raise the Transfer Roller and will stop when the Headlift Sensor is activated. All stop.

20The Stepper and Film Drive engage to laminate the printed Film onto the card. They will turn off after a given number of steps based on the position given by the card Sensor. All stop. (Note: The Film Encoder is active during this step.)

21The Headlift Motor turns ON to lower the Transfer Roller, stopping when the Headlift Sensor is activated.

22The Film Drive and Stepper turn ON for a given number of clicks based on Film Encoder, until the film is released.

23The Stepper turns ON to move the card into Flipper Module to flip the card to the opposite side. After flipping the card is transported back to the Card Feed/Position Sensor to repeat Steps 9 to 14.

Upon completion of print all print cycles the card is transported to the Output Hopper (based on steps from a known from Flipper Card Position Sensor). All stop.

24The Heater is maintained at a set temperature by the RTD when the Printer is ON. The cooling fan is ON when the Printhead is ON or hot.
