Open the left hand top cover, In between the ribbon rollers you will see a small flipper, ( small piece of metal with a wheel stuck on one end. ) Maually turn this so the grey wheel is on top and white smaller wheel on the bottom.

This ocassional gets jammed and need righting manually.

SOURCE: Problem on card print using Fargo DTC525 Single Side Print model

I think the problem is in the printer definition. Perhaps the software is calling for the output to be duplexed. The printer does not have a duplex installed so it creates the error. On the other hand, if the printer does have the duplex option, then you are looking at a printer problem.

SOURCE: Fargo 4250 card printer runs, but doesn't print.

take the ribbon out, and rewind it a little bit and see if you see print on it. if you dont, chances are your printhead is either bad or has loose cables going into it.

if you do see print, either your card is not aligning properly or the head lift motor might not be working (when the unit on, open the door, and press both buttons at the same time and see if the printhead does an up and down motion), platen roller is bad

I have fargo hdp5000 printers that keep display this errors message. Lm1 headlift err No 217

That message indicates the printer logic-board cannot either cannot sense or can't get a confirmation that head in the lamination unit (#1) is raised. Things you can check:

1. Make sure you have the right power-supplies for both the printer & lam. unit. They should match, so fairly easy to check. Of course, make sure both are firmly plugged in.

2. Sometimes when powering on the printer/laminator, there's a timing issue where the laminator isn't ready to respond when the printer looks for it to be there. To check this, power on the laminator first, wait 5 seconds, then power on the printer.

3. Make sure that the printer and laminator aren't separating and are perfectly aligned. The connection between the 2 is a "finger board" that protrudes from one and interfaces with the other. If the printer and laminator aren't in proper alignment, it may interrupt communications between the 2.

Other than that, it may require service for a bad head-lift motor. If you're located in the USA, we are a servicing dealer for Fargo, and can help with out-of-warranty service. If outside the USA, or if the unit is still in warranty, consult your local dealer.

Good luck!

Fargo HDP5000 HDP5k H5k Ribbon Breaks Error 97

You need to update the printers firmware. 9 times out of 10, this is the issues I see.

Go to HIDglobal.com. Under the support tab, select Drivers & Downloads. From here, populate the drop down menus with Make and Model. Compare the available firmware with the firmware version current installed on the printer.

Hit [Options] then [Next] on the printer to figure out the version.

On this same web page, make sure to download the Fargo Workbench Utility. It gives you the ability to update.
