Section 2: General Troubleshooting
The purpose of this section is to provide the User with specific procedures relating to the
LCD/SmartGuard Messages, Communication Errors, Card Feeding Errors, Encoding Errors,
Printing Process Errors, Transfer Process Errors and Diagnosing the Image Problems for the
HDP 820 Card Printer.
IMPORTANT! Fargo Card Printers require highly specialized print ribbons to function
properly. To maximize Printer life, reliability, printed card quality and durability, you must use
only Fargo Certified Supplies. For this reason, your Fargo warranty is void, where not
prohibited by law, if you use non-Fargo Certified Supplies. To order additional materials,
please contact your authorized reseller.
