Error 112 – Fargo HDP5000
Error 112 is a generic card jam error that usually occurs with an HDP5000 with a flipper module and laminator attached to it.
Things to check:
Run a self test from the front panel to eliminate your computer or software from the equation
Try different cards
Ensure that the cards you are using are in specification
Manually clean the rollers
Update the printer driver and firmware to the latest on Fargo’s Website
Check to make sure that the printer is on a completely level service
Remove and test the printer without the other modules. Then reattach the flipper and lamination module (The tabs can become bent and cause the modules to not align properly. You can attempt to bend them back into the correct position)
Ensure that the flipper module and lamination module are correctly attached and fastened with the screws
Check for card warpage (If the card is warped in the transfer process the card will most likely jam going into the flipper module)

Error 231 – Evolis Primacy
231 – Mechanical error, card jam
The print attempt has failed. One or more cards have become jammed in the printer, or there is a defect in a mechanical component.
If a card is blocked, remove the card as follows:
- Open the printer cover and remove the ribbon.
- Press the button on the control panel to turn the card feed rollers. If the card is still stuck inside the printer, slide it manually towards the printer output. If there is more than one card, always push the top one first.
- Replace the ribbon, then close the printer cover.
To prevent card jams:
- Check that the card thickness gauge is correctly adjusted.
- Ensure that the thickness of the cards used matches the specifications of your printer.
- Check that the cards are flat. Keep them in a horizontal position.
- Check that the cards are not stuck together. Shuffle the cards before loading them.
If the cards are not jammed and the problem is due to a mechanical defect, please contact your Evolis dealer for advice and support
