How to Calibrate a Lamination Sensor on a HDP5000

If your ID card printer is not properly recognizing your lamination film, either by not recognizing the type of film or acknowledging that a film has been replaced, you will need to calibrate the sensors on your HDP5000 printer.

To Calibrate Your Printer

  1. Go to your Devices and Printers folder.
  2. Right click on the Fargo HDP5000, and choose Printing Preferences.
  3. Click on ToolBox.
