Fargo HDP5000: Separating the Dual-Sided Module
0:42 · Published November 2, 2015 · Watch on YouTube
A quick bench tutorial on detaching the dual-sided flipper module from a Fargo HDP5000.
Taking the module off
The dual-sided module on a Fargo HDP5000, the flipper that turns the card over, comes off the printer in a few steps. Turn the printer over and find the two screws marked with arrows. Remove them and the flipper module separates from the printer.
A cable still connects the two units. Take the side cover off the flipper module, unplug that cable from the printer, and the module is free.
If you would rather not open the printer yourself, our bench repair team works on Fargo printers every day.
The short version
- Turn the printer over and find the two screws marked with arrows.
- Remove the screws and lift the module away.
- Remove the module's side cover and unplug the connecting cable.
