Introduction

Product Features

The UP-D6500, UP-D6400 and UP-D6300 Digital

Color Printers use the dye sublimation thermal transfer

process for duplex printing1) of color and monochrome

characters and graphical computer images on ISO or

JIS standard plastic cards.

These models offer progressively higher levels of

printing quality, as follows:

UP-D6300: Equipped with 4 MB of image memory

and duplex printing capability, this model

connects to the computer’s parallel port.

An automatic card feeder is available as

an option.

UP-D6400: This model adds magnetic read/write and

template memory functions to the features

of the UP-D6300. Options are the same as

for the UP-D6300.

UP-D6500: This model adds Smart Card2) read/write

and SCSI3) interface capabilities to the

features of the UP-D6400. Image memory

is expanded to 8 MB, and data can be

spooled during printing. Two optional

automatic card feeders can be installed

together, and an optional automatic card

stacker can be installed in combination

with the supplied card tray.

This manual describes the common features of the

three models. Features specific to particular models are

described on the applicable pages.

The software supplied with each model lets you easily

combine images and text data to create large quantities

of high-resolution (300 dpi4)), full color ID cards (256-

level grayscale and 16.7 M colors).

Supported Applications

Ask your supplier for information about supported

application programs.

..........................................................................................................................................................................................................

1) Duplex Printing

Printing requires cards that comply with ISO

international standard (ISO7810 ID-1 type) or JIS

standard (JIS X6301-1979).

2) Smart Cards

ISO-standard IC cards incorporating CPU and memory.

This type of card provides better security than the

magnetic stripe type, and offers a wider range of uses.

3) SCSI (Small Computer System Interface)

This is a system standard for connecting peripheral

devices such as printers, hard disk drives, scanners and

other devices with the computer. Up to 7 SCSI devices

(SCSI-compliant peripheral devices) can be connected

by daisy chain to one host computer.

4) dpi (dots per inch)

The unit indicating the number of dots in one inch (25.4

mm).

* The UP-D6300/D6400 do not include a SCSI connector and SCSI ID switch.

SCSI Cable Connection

The UP-D6500 can be connected to the computer by a SCSI cable. When using SCSI connections, other SCSI

devices such as an MO disk drive can be connected in between.

Precautions

Operating Precautions

Power Supply

Connect only to the specified power source (120 or

240 VAC, 50/60 Hz).

Handle the Power Cord Carefully

Do not bend the cord sharply or place heavy objects on

it. The cord could be damaged and cause a fire or

electric shock. Do not use a damaged cord.

Avoid Ingress of Foreign Objects

Do not spill any liquids or drop any flammable or

metallic objects into the printer. Operating the printer

with a foreign object inside may cause fire, electric

shock or damage.

To Avoid Electric Shock

Never remove the outer cabinet. Touching internal

components may cause electric shock and presents

other dangers.

In Case of Abnormal Operation

In the event of an unusual sound or smell, or if smoke

appears or a foreign object falls into the printer, turn

off the power and contact your nearest Sony Service

Center.

If not Using for a Long Time

Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from

the outlet.

About Transporting

Remove all attached accessories before transporting

the printer. Transporting with accessories connected

may result in damage.

About Card Stock

Use cards that comply with ISO international standard

(ISO7810 ID-1 type) or JIS standard (JIS X6301-

1979).

Notes

•Use only clean cards, with no debris, dirt or other

adhering matter.

•Some card materials may not be suitable. Contact

your supplier for details.

Installation Precautions

Do not install or store the printer in the following

conditions:

•Exposed to direct sunlight

•In humid locations

•In very hot or cold locations

•Where it might be exposed to heavy vibration

•Dusty locations

•On an unstable surface

•Avoid blocking the vent on the rear, as damage could

result.

About Condensation

If the printer is moved from a cool place to a warm

humid place, moisture may condense inside. Operating

the printer in this condition could cause a malfunction

and damage. Therefore, if any possibility of

condensation is suspected, the printer should be turned

off and allowed time to reach equilibrium with the

environment.

Cleaning

When the cabinet becomes dirty, wipe it with a cloth

moistened with water or a solution of synthetic

detergent (after wringing out any excess liquid). Do

not use thinner, cleaning fluid, alcohol or a chemically

treated cloth, as these could damage the cabinet finish.
