Troubleshooting
What is the problem?
Try this:
1
A message appears on the PC or 
LCD panel.
Click the Help button on the message box to see possible causes 
and the solution for each cause. See the “Related Topics” to fix 
the problem.
2
The printed cards do not look the 
way that was intended.
If you moved the ribbon while the printer was powered off, print 
another card. If the problem persists, see Info Central for detailed 
information about solving card appearance problems. 
3
Cards jam often.
The brand of cards might be heavily powdered, dirty, or bowed 
(curved). Consider buying a different brand of cards or clean the 
printer more often to use the cards. 
The printer rollers might be dirty. See 
 for steps to clean the printer rollers.
4
The ribbon has broken.
Trim the end of the broken ribbon evenly. If ribbon on the take-up 
spool is not wound firmly or is uneven, remove it. Tape the end of 
the ribbon onto the same take-up spool, making the edges of the 
ribbon and spool even.
If the ribbon breaks repeatedly, settings might not be correct for 
the card design and ribbon. See Setup in Info Central.
