Inside the printer

Open the cover to find the following on the inside of the printer.
Swing arm
Duplex or pass-through mechanism
The optional duplex module flips the card to automatically print on both sides of the
card. Magna printers that do not have a duplex mechanism will have a pass-through
mechanism in this location. If the printer includes an optional smart card module, it is
located under the duplex mechanism.
Swing arm
The swing arm opens to give you access to the print ribbon cartridge, continuous
cleaning roller, and printhead cartridge. Push down on the raised end of the swing arm
to unlatch it and then open it.
Ribbon tracker
The ribbon tracker measures the movement of the print ribbon as it moves from the
supply spool during printing. (Hidden in this view.)
Overlay supply cartridge (optional)
This cartridge holds the overlay supply and can be removed for easy reloading.
