Card gate adjustment 26 – The Eltron Company PRIVILEGE P600 User Manual
Page 34
Cards just removed from the media packaging
typically have accumulated an electrostatic
charge. Electrostatic charges can cause cards
to stick together, making card feeds difficult.
Card shuffling can reduce some of this adhe-
sive force. However, avoid bending the card
media or touching the card surfaces that will re-
ceive images.
DO NOT set unprinted cards on dust or lint
carrying surfaces, i.e., table tops, cloth, com-
puters, etc..
DO NOT place media with magnetic stripes
on or near magnetic sources, such as: moni-
tors, non-electronic phones, paper clip hold-
ers, speakers, etc.
Card Gate
Adjustment
The Card Gate serves to meter card feeds so
that only one card feeds at a time. If more than
one card feeds, a card jam occurs. Each card
thickness requires a different Card Gate open-
ing. Never intermix cards with different thick-
ness in the Card Feed Hopper. Only use
0.030-mil cards in P500s
