HDP5000 Process Flow (in table format)
Reviewing the HDP5000 Boot-up Sequence
Step Process
1 The Card feed stepper turns ON (to check for a card in the card path).
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
the color of the ribbon).
6 The Transfer Film advances forward two panels from supply (advances until
the Print Film Sensor senses 2 marks on the Film).
7 The Transfer Film advances forward one panel from supply (advances until
the Print Film Sensor senses 1 mark on the Film).
8 The Transfer Film reverses for one panel onto supply (reverses until the Print
Film Sensor senses 1 mark on the Film).
9 The Transfer Film reverses for one panel onto supply (reverses until the Print
Film Sensor senses 1 mark on the Film).

Reviewing the HDP5000 Sequence of Operations
The following sequence describes a dual-sided, full color print job with magnetic encoding.
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
RTD (Resistive Thermal Device) 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
under the Card Feed/Position Sensor.
4 For a magnetic print job, the Stepper will continue moving the card until the
trailing edge is positioned under the Mag Head. All stop.
5 Stepper will turn ON in reverse direction and encode card. All stop.
6 Stepper will again turn on and position the trailing edge of the card under the
Mag Head. All stop.
7 Stepper will turn ON in reverse direction and verify data encoded onto mag
stripe.
8 Stepper continues transporting card until the trailing edge is positioned under
the Card Feed/Position Sensor. All stop.
9 The Ribbon Drives turn ON and move until the correct panel is found by the
Print Ribbon Sensor. 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 Print Platen Roller.)
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.
12 The Fan turns ON as required to keep head cool.

Reviewing HDP5000 Card Printer Sequence of Operations (continued)
Step Process
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. The Film Drive reverses the Film Position Sensor to print over
the image (again).
15 Repeat Steps 9 to 14 for the appropriate number of color/heat seal panels.
16 The Film Drives turn ON to rewind the printed portion of the Film into position at
the heated Transfer Roller using the Lamination Film Alignment Sensor.
17 If the heater is not at the required temperature yet, the job will pause.
18 Stepper engages to move the card to a position directly over the Transfer Roller.
The Card Feed/Position Sensor determines card edge and number of steps to
