3: Theory of Operation
Card Movement During Printing
3.4 Card Movement During Printing
Step 1. The card is fed from the Card Feeder and loaded into the Card Flipper where it is
rotated into the print position.
Step 2. The card is moved into the Print Engine, passing the Cleaning Roller; this cleans dust
or dirt particles from the upper card surface.
Step 3. If the Printer includes an optional Magnetic Stripe Encoder, the card is moved to the
Magnetic Stripe Encoder, and the stripe is encoded.
After the card is encoded, it is checked to verify that the magnetic stripe was
properly encoded.
If encoding fails, the card is ejected into the Card Hopper. This is done to avoid
wasting time and ribbon panels on a defective card.
If the encoding is successful, the card is moved into the pre-print position, just before
the Printhead.
