Setting Procedures
The vertical axis in the setting area indicates the bend remedy temperature, and the horizontal axis
represents the bend remedy speed. Click on the corresponding square to change the value. The
selected value is indicated using “

Setting a value toward the top right end increases the bend remedy force, however impact of heat on the
card will also be greater. Parts for which the bend remedy force is similar is indicated using the same
color in the setting area.
To disable bend remedy, select the “Disable” radio button. The default setting is “Disable”.
Caution
1) The setting areas serve only as a rough indicator. The optimal value varies according to the
card type as well as the environment in which the printer is used. As such, set the values
after trying out under the environment where it is to be used.
2) Bend remedy is effective when printing on only one side. Performing double-sided printing
with a high bend remedy temperature may cause the card to deform significantly. As such,
select the “Disable” button during double-sided printing.
3) When the “Disable” radio button is turned on, the printer switches to and remains in the
preheating mode (for approximately 10 minutes) until the bendy remedy roller’s temperature
has gone down. This is not a malfunction. Wait for the printer to switch to the Ready mode.
4) When bend remedy is disabled using the “Disable” button, the speed is automatically set to
the maximum value (+2).
5) If the bend remedy force becomes strong, the surface of remedy side will become lusterless.
