Left Card Input Guide Screws

1.Open the Card Hopper Door located on the right- hand side of the printerÕs exterior by grasping the top of the door and pulling straight down. Allow the door to swing completely open.

2.As you are looking straight into the Card Hopper, locate the left Card Input Guide and loosen the two screws which fasten it to the back plate of the Card Hopper.

3.Once these two screws have been loosened, it is possible to move the left Card Input Guide slightly to the right or to the left. Insert the stack of cards.

4.Adjust the left Card Input Guide so it rests flush against the side of the card stack, and re-tighten the two screws loosened in the previous steps. Adjustment to the left Card Input Guide is now complete. If the cards being inserted are 2.3Ó or wider, refer to section B.

Two Internal Card Guides reside inside the printer. These Internal Card Guides are also adjustable to accommodate varying card widths. Although these card guides are spring-loaded and will automatically adjust to slight card width variations, a manual adjustment must be made in order for the printer to accept cards 2.3Ó or wider.

Please refer to the following steps to adjust both Internal Card Guides:

1.Open both top covers of the printer by pressing the Cover Release Buttons. Allow the covers to swing up and open.

Mechanical Adjustments

The Color ID Card Printer is pre-set at the factory to accept and consistently feed and print a standard CR-80 3.375ÓL x 2.125ÓW x

.030Ó (86mmL x 54mmW x .75mm) card size. When inserting cards which vary from this standard card size, one should make slight adjustments to the Card Input Guides and to the Card Separator Flap for consistent card feeding and for best output quality. This section explains how to make these adjustments and also how to adjust the printerÕs built- in laminator for optimizing placement of the PolyGuard overlaminate.
