Precautions on Retransfer Film/Ink Ribbon
v

Printer Installation
v

When the printer is not in use, it is recommended that you turn off
the power, and use a cover that is large enough to cover up the
entire printer unit.
Do not place the printer unit in the following locations. Doing so may
have adverse effects on the printer.

Carpeted room.
Places with a busy flow of people.
v Places where paper (corrugated boards, etc.) is handled or stored.
v Places near photocopiers.
v Places exposed to direct sunlight or near a heating equipment
(such as a stove).
v Inclined or unstable surfaces.
v Places exposed directly to cold air, such as near an air-conditioner
outlet, or places subject to high temperatures.
v When installing the printer, ensure there is sufficient space around
the printer. (Install the printer by allowing a clearance of at least 20
cm between its sides and surrounding walls. Allow a clearance of at
least 10 cm between the rear of the printer and the wall.)
v When installing or moving the printer, hold the bottom (handle) of the printer
with one hand on each side to avoid jamming your hands or fingers.

Put on the supplied gloves when handling the retransfer film/ink
ribbon. Direct contact of your hand with the printing surface may
result in printing errors.

m
v

Canceling the transport mode
While in the transport mode during installation, the retransfer film
cannot be loaded. If the printer is turned on without loading the
retransfer film, a [Film Search] message appears and the transport
mode is canceled.

When loading the retransfer film/ink ribbon
Use your hands to adjust the media at the supply and take-up
sides so that they are parallel to each other.
When doing so, make sure you do not touch the printing surface.
Refer to the label adhered to the cassette for alignment of the
image position. Printing errors may occur if the position is not
properly aligned.

When retransfer film/ink ribbon is dismantled
Winding misalignment may occur. If an improperly wound
retransfer film/ink ribbon is loaded, printing failure or error may
occur.

Precautions on Cards
v

Put on the supplied gloves when handling the cards. Direct contact
of your hand with the printing surface of the card may result in
printing errors.

Handling and storage of cards after printing
Avoid storing cards at places that are exposed to direct sunlight or
subject to high temperature and humidity.
Discoloration or fading may occur if a card comes into contact with
the following chemicals or stationery.
v Organic solvents, including alcohol, film cleaner, and diazo copies.
v Files, document cases, pass holders, or erasers made of flexible
polyvinyl chloride.
v Hair wax or cosmetic products.
m

During transport or moving of the printer
v Make sure to set to the transport mode.

Precautions on Retransfer Film/Ink Ribbon/Card
Handling instructions
Pay careful attention of the following when handling a printing media
(retransfer film or ink ribbon) or card.
v Using a deformed or scratched card may cause card feed errors.
v Touching the printing surface of the printing media or card directly
with your hand may cause the print to turn out uneven.
v Foreign particles attached to the printed areas may result in printing
voids. Install the printing media or card in a clean environment.
v Use of electrically-charged printing media or cards may cause
printing errors. Do not allow static to occur, such as due to cards
rubbing against each other.
v When replacing or replenishing a printing media or card that is stored
under a low temperature, use after leaving the media or card in the
operating ambient temperature of the printer for at least one hour.
Otherwise, condensation may occur, causing printing errors or
malfunction of the printer.

front side retransfer speed setting.
v Speed (B-UV): -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2
For setting the retransfer speed of the second panel on the back side during
UV ink printing of retransfer films in two panels. Selecting a larger value
increases the speed.
v MG Peel Mode: Standard, MG Stripe
For setting the method for peeling the retransfer film.
Retransfer at areas close to the magnetic stripe may not be performed

Connecting with a USB Cable
Cautions:
v

While printing is in progress, do not turn off the power of the
computer, or switch it to the sleep or standby mode. Doing so may
stop the movement of the cards inside the printer.
Plug the USB cable in correctly and firmly.
Do not connect the cable to the USB connectors on the monitor or
keyboard of the computer. The printer may not be correctly
recognized.
When using a USB hub, make use of one that is directly connected
to the computer.
Turn off the power of the printer and computer

Plug the USB cable into the USB cable connection terminal at the
rear of the printer, and "Cable clamp" (A page 8) pass the USB
cable through the cable clamp

Turn off the power of the printer and computer

Plug the LAN cable into the LAN cable connection terminal at the
rear of the printer

Plug the LAN cable into the connection terminal of the hub that is
installed on the network that the computer is connected to

Plug the LAN cable in correctly and firmly.
Make use of a shielded LAN cable to avoid any malfunction.
If a USB cable is also connected at the same time when the power is
turned on, priority will be given to USB.

Connecting Multiple Printers
To connect multiple printer units to one computer via USB, assign a
different unit number from 1 to 10 to each of the printers.
"Unit Number Setting" (A page 28)
v To connect multiple printers to the same network, set a different IP
address for each printer.

Cautions:
As illustrated in the diagram, do not pull the USB cable excessively
toward the cable clamp. Doing so may subject the USB connector of
the printer to stress, thus resulting in connection problems.

Plug the other end of the USB cable into the USB cable connection
terminal of the computer

Use the [+] values to increase, and [-] values to decrease the density.

The optimal retransfer and bend remedy settings vary according to
the card type as well as environment in which the printer is used.
Adjust the setting according to the actual environment.
If the retransfer or bend remedy settings are different from the preset
temperature of the printer, it may take a while before printing starts.
There is only one standard retransfer temperature. Altering the
retransfer temperature on one side changes the temperature on the
other side.
Bend remedy is effective when printing on only one side. Setting
bend remedy to a high temperature during double-sided printing may
cause the card to deform significantly.
As such, select the [Disable] button during double-sided printing.
When bend remedy is disabled using the [Disable] button, the speed
is automatically set to the maximum value of [+2].
The stronger the bend remedy force, the less glossy the surface of
the remedy side will be.
