Datacard SP35 Printer Logo
Posted on Apr 15, 2011

I have a datacard SP35 printer. I recently changed the ribbon and cleaned the machine. Now the cards are printing however they are only prining all yellow, all pink, all blue, black only, or half pink half yellow. Im not sure whether the ribbon isnt wound to the correct start colour or what is going on. Do you have any suggestions please?

My printer DataCard SP 35 started printing only in grayscale suddenly (with a colored ribbon). Before it ware printing colored cards.

I think rain doesn't have anything to do, unless you had your printer outside...
Maybe a light interruption could make your station start over without proper settings. Try checking your printer driver and see if it has the proper settings for ribbon and not printing on black dots.

You can't - the Cleaning Card supplied with the replacement ribbons is for other models of the Datacard printer, not the SP35 Plus :(

Card jam

You have to change the roller just inside the picker roller.

Sometimes the glue that holds the "cleanig roller" loosen from the pin.
Sorry, bad english... :D

Datacard SP35 + giving broken ribbon error

You have to clean the roller under the printerhead.
The big black one..

I suggest you install Diagnostics.

Go to motor test, and take the transport fast reverse. 300 sec.

Now you can clean the roller easy.

Printing faintly

It sounds like the printhead temperature needs to be increased in the print driver. This will enhance the color and density of the ribbon transfer to the card.
