Special Note:

How to fit UR3 Continuous Resin Dye Film and UR10 Single Colour Dye Film

Before fitting the continuous resin black thermal transfer film dye film or the UR10 single colour dye film a small modification must be carried out on the take-up spool spigot before operating the printer.

As this dye film has no panels the optical sensors are inoperative, so for correct operation it is important that this modification is carried out.

Please Note: Should you revert back to using any other dye film this modification must be reversed.

The modification is performed as follows:

Switch off the Magicard printer and lift up the Mechanism Top

Cover to the vertical position and remove the dye film and take-up spools.

ON PRINTERS WITH WHITE PLASTIC DYE FILM TAKE-UP GEAR

1

Remove the steel pin, which normally engages with the recess in the dye film take-up spool.

This pin is a press fit in the dye film take-up spigot adjacent to the large plastic spur gear as illustrated in Figure 2.

It may be removed by means of a pair of pliers or a small "Mole" wrench, using a twisting and pulling action to remove it.

2

With each new roll of continuous black dye film, a rubber washer is provided, this washer should be fitted on the plastic dye takeup spigot adjacent to the large spur gear, and before fitting the dye film take-up spool.

ON PRINTERS WITH BLACK DYE FILM TAKE-UP GEAR

Using a Phillips head screwdriver, turn the locking screw on the centre of the dye film take-up spigot anti-clockwise until the tab (which normally engages in the recess in the dye film take-up spool) drops flush with the dye film take-up spigot. See Figure 3 .
