Zusammenfassung: | A conventional ink jet printer is modified to print identification cards by removing the paper feed assembly from the printer and substituting a card feeder. The card feeder has a frame that supports card feed rollers, and also supports the existing printer paper drive roller shaft. The paper feed drive shaft from the printer is used to drive the feed rollers for the card feeder. The initiation feeding a card is in response to the same mechanical input from the printer as was used to initiate feeding a sheet of paper for printing. The card feeder assembly does not add any motors or operating mechanisms to the printer, thereby maintaining a low cost by using a high production paper printer modified to accept identification cards. |
