Reviewing the HDP600 Sequence of Operations
The following sequence describes a dual sided full color print job with magnetic encoding.
(Note: The HDP625/625-LC Printers have two (2) Card Input Hoppers that load 100 cards in
each Hopper.)
Step Process
1 The File information is received from the PC.
2 The Heater warms up and/or maintains the heat on the hot Roller using the
Thermocouple to help maintain the desired temp.
3 The DC Motor and Stepper Motor turn ON and run until a card is seen by the card
Sensor, which will cause the Card Input Motor to stop.
The Stepper will continue to run a certain number of steps to position the card on
the Flipper Table. All stop. Card Low Sensor will check for cards in Input Hopper.
4 Stepper will turn ON, causing the Flipper to turn to the magnetic angular position.
The Flag Sensor and counted steps are used to determine the angular position. All
stop.
5 Stepper will engage to drive the card past the Mag Card Sensor and the Mag
Head.
6 Stepper engages to drive the card to a centered position on the Flipper Table
using the Mag Card Sensor and a step count. All stop.
7 Stepper will turn ON, causing the Flipper to turn to the default (flat) position. The
Flat Sensor and counted steps are used to determine the angular position. All
stop.
8 Steppers engage to move the card OFF the Flipper and to a position near the hot
Roller, using Card Feed Sensors and a step count. All stop.
9 The Ribbon Drives turn ON and move until the correct panel is found by the Print
Ribbon Sensor array (5 reflective). All stop. (Note: The Print Ribbon Encoder is
active during this step.)
This step occurs simultaneously with Step 10 (below).
10 The Film Drives turn ON until the Film is positioned with the Film Print Alignment
Sensor. (Note: This is the closest Sensor to the Transfer Rollers.)
All stop. (Note: The Film Ribbon Encoder is active during this step.)
11 The Headlift Motor engages, moving the Printhead down until Headlift Sensor is
activated. All stop.

Reviewing HDP 600 Series Card Printer - Sequence of Operations (continued)
Step Process
12 The Fan turns ON as required to keep head cool.
13 The Ribbon Drives, Film Drive and Print Platen Stepper turn ON and the Printhead
burns the image data until the image data is depleted. All stop. (Note: The Ribbon
Encoders and Film Encoders are active during this step.)
14 The Headlift Motor engages, moving the Printhead up until the Headlift Sensor is
activated. All stop.
15 The Ribbon Drives and Film Ribbon Drive advance until the Print Ribbon Encoder
sees acceleration at release. (Note: The Ribbon Encoders are active during this
step.)
16 The Ribbon Drives move until the Print Ribbon Position Sensor finds the next
panel. All Motors stop. (Note: The Ribbon Encoder is active during this step.)
17 The Film ribbon drive turns ON until the images portion of the Film is positioned
before the Printhead, using the Film Print Alignment Sensor. All stop. (Note: The
Film Encoder is active during this step.)
18 The Headlift Motor engages, moving Printhead down until the Headlift Sensor is
activated. All stop.
19 Ribbon Drive, Film Ribbon Drive and Stepper all turn ON and the Printhead burns
image data until the image data is depleted. All stop. (Note: The Ribbon Encoders
and Film Encoders are active during this step.)
20 The Ribbon Drive, Film Drive and Print Platen Stepper engage until print Ribbon
Encoder sees acceleration at release. (Note: The Ribbon Encoders are active

23 The Film/Ribbon Drives and Print Platen Stepper turn ON to advance the printed
portion of the Film into position at the heated Lam Roller Stepper Motor, using the
Lamination Film Alignment Sensor.
24 The Headlift Motor engages, moving the Printhead up until the Headlift Sensor is
activated. All stop. (Note: This step is not performed after the last Color/Heat Seal
Panel is printed.)
25 If the heater is not at the required temperature yet, the job will pause.
26 Stepper engages to move the card to a position directly under the hot Roller. The
Top of Form Sensor determines card edge and number of steps to position card.
All stop.
27 The Headlift Motor turns ON to lower the hot Roller and will stop when the Headlift
Sensor is activated. All off.
28 The Stepper and Film Drive engage to laminate the printed Film onto the card.
They will turn off after a given number of steps based on the position given by the
card Sensor. All stop. (Note: The Film Encoder is active during this step.)
29 The Headlift Motor turns on to raise the hot Roller, stopping when the Headlift
Sensor is activated.
30 The Film Drive and Stepper turn ON for a given number of clicks based on Film
Encoder, until the film is released.
31 The Stepper turns ON to move the card into the Output Hopper (based on steps
from a known position). All stop.
32 The Heater and Thermocouple are maintained at a set temperature at all times
when the Printer is ON. The cooling fan is ON when the Printhead is ON or hot.

1 The Card feed stepper turns ON (to check for a card on the Flipper table).
2 The Lam Headlift turns until the head up position is returned from the Headlift
Sensor).
3 The Film transfer take-up Motor turns ON to take up any slack in the film.
4 The Print Headlift turns until head up position is returned from Headlift Sensor.
5 The Print Ribbon moves forward until it finds the yellow panel, pauses, advances
to magenta, then backs up to yellow (the Ribbon Sensor detects marks on the
ribbon).
6 The Transfer Ribbon advances forward two panels from supply (advances until
the Print Film Sensor senses 2 marks on the Film).
7 The Transfer Ribbon advances forward one panel from supply (advances until
the Print Film Sensor senses 1 mark on the Film).
8 The Transfer Ribbon reverses for one panel onto supply (reverses until the Print
Film Sensor senses 1 mark on the Film).
9 The Transfer Ribbon reverses for one panel onto supply (reverses until the Print
Film Sensor senses 1 mark on the Film).

Adjustments):
CR-80: This selection is the default form size for the HDP600.
This will print a 3.375 in. L x 2.125 in. W (85.6mm L x 54mm W)
image including a .04 over-bleed on each of the 4 sides. This
makes the overall form size 2.204 X 3.452 (56 X 87.7 mm).
CR-80 No Over-Bleed: This selection eliminates the over-
bleed on both the leading and trailing edge making the form size
of 3.374 in. L x 2.2 in. W (85.7mm L x 56mm W). Note: This
selection is used to improve the overall readability of barcodes.
Custom: This selection is used to create a custom form size
from 1.0 x 3.0 to 2.204 to 3.452 (25.4 X 76.2 mm to 56 X 87.7
mm).
HDP600 CR100 and HDP600-LC CR100 (same reference):
CR-100: This selection is the default form size for the HDP600
CR100. This will print 3.88 in. L x 2.63 in. W (98.5mm L x 67mm
W) including a .04 over-bleed on each of the 4 sides.
This makes the overall form size 3.92 in. L x 2.67 in. W
(98.9mm L x 71mm W). The CR-100 size PolyGuard applies
only if laminating with HDP600-LC CR100.
CR-100 No Over-Bleed: This selection eliminates the over-
bleed on both the leading and trailing edge making the form size
of 3.88 in. L x 2.63 in. W (98.5mm L x 67mm W). (Note: This
selection is used to improve the overall readability of barcodes.)
Custom: Select the Custom option under Card tab in the
Printer Driver. Enter the dimensions of the card into the Print
Width and Print Length boxes if using a card size that varies
from the CR-100. Add .04" (1mm) to each dimension to ensure
Edge-to-Edge printing.

Print speeds do not include encoding time or the time needed
for the PC to process the image.
Process time is dependent on the size of the file, the CPU,
amount of RAM and the amount of available resources at the
time of the print.
