5.3
Explanation of the Various Modes
5.3.1 Maintenance
Set to this mode if a constant setting that is different from the
standard setting of this unit is to be used.
In addition, the printing position is adjusted using the following 4
items. Do not change "Offset Card X" as it is the reference of X
direction (card transport direction). Follow 5.3.1.2 and 5.3.1.3 to
perform adjustment.
• Item for changing the position of longer side of the card:
(1) Item 5.3.1.1: Offset Prt Y --- Adjust the start position
used for printing within the thermal head heat source.
• Item for changing the position of shorter side of the card:
(1) Item 5.3.1.2: Offset Prt X --- Adjust the feed amount from
the black marker of re-transfer film to the start position of
printing. (adjust the printing position on the re-transfer
film)
(2) Item 5.3.1.3: Offset Trf X --- Adjust the feed amount up
to the start position of re-transfer film. (adjust the re-
transfer position for the card)
(3) Item 5.3.1.4: Offset Card X --- Adjust the feed amount
from the card edge sensor to the card. (adjust the card
position for starting re-transfer)
5.3.1.1
Offset Prt Y Setting
(1) Determines the displacement amount according to the print
results (those owned by the user). Every step corresponds
to a displacement of about 0.17 mm. The step can be var-
ied in the range between -15 and +15.
(2) Press [
] to save the setting.
(3) Print and check the result.
(4) To adjust to the standard setting:
In the service mode, print color patterns on single sides of
4 to 5 cards.
Adjust so that the distance from the card edge to the box
enclosing the line (A) is about 2.15 mm. (Check the third to
fifth cards.)
5.3.1.2
Offset Prt X Setting
(1) Determine the displacement amount according to the print
results (those owned by the user). Every step corresponds
to a displacement of about 0.085 mm. The step can be var-
ied in the range between -7 and +7.
(2) Press [
] to save the setting.
(3) Print and check the result.
(4) To adjust to the standard setting:
In the service mode, print color patterns on single sides of
4 to 5 cards. And then remove the film cassette.
Adjust so that the distance from the black marker on the
film to the remaining vertical line (P) is about 8.5 mm.
(Check the third to fifth cards.)
5.3.1.3
Offset Trf X Setting
(1) 1) Determine the displacement amount according to the
print results (those owned by the user). Every step corre-
sponds to a displacement of about 0.085 mm. The step can
be varied in the range between -14 and +14.
(2) Press [
] to save the setting.
(3) Print and check the result.
(4) To adjust to the standard setting:
In the service mode, print color patterns on single sides of
4 to 5 cards.
Adjust so that the distance from the card edge to the box
enclosing the line (B) is about 2.07 mm. (Check the third to
fifth cards.)
5.3.1.4
Offset Card X Setting
This adjustment adjusts the stop position of the card and change
the re-transfer start position. If this adjustment is performed while
using standard card, the card position against the heat roller will
shift causing card jam or retransfer error. Do not change the set-
ting value for normal case.
5.3.1.5
Setting of the ink-sensor level
Set the threshold level of the ink sensor so that the ink sensor de-
fect the ink color "yellow" and "magenta" as transmission, and
"cyan" and "Bk" as interruption. Select threshold value by using [
] buttons, and press the [
] button to save the select
Value.
5.3.1.6
Setting of the film Sensor level
The threshold level of the film sensor is set. The setting value can
be changed with the [
] button and set with the [
] but-
ton. Adjust the value with transparent film area as transmission,
and with the black marker area as interruption.
5.3.1.7
IC Contact Type Selection
Select the type of IC contact to be mounted.
5.3.1.8
Offset Contact Setting
To be used for adjusting the position of the attached IC contact
unit. Refer to "IC Contact Adj Setting" for adjusting method.
5.3.1.9
ISO Hi-co Type Selection
When the ISO type Mag. Encoder is built in, and Hi-co is select-
ed, the following two types of Hi-co mode can be selected:
• Standard : Use the standard Hi-co card. Antimagnetic force
2750 Oe
• Super : Use the super Hi-co card. Antimagnetic force 4000 Oe
5.3.1.10 IC Antenna Setting
When a contact less IC R/W is mounted, select Installed.
