Static electricity can be a real challenge when it comes to ID card printing, no matter which ID card printer you use. The plastic ID cards used in ID card printing have a tendency to build up static electricity charges between them. This causes the ID cards to essentially stick together, making them more likely to cause a printer jam when the printer attempts to grab each card, one at a time for printing. This can also happen when using paper printers.
Fortunately, there is something really easy you can do to stop ID card static cling from happening before it ever starts! Before you even load the ID cards into your ID card printer, fan them out just a little bit like a hand of playing cards. Do not pull them apart too much, so as to avoid getting any dust in between them, just fan them out a bit to dissipate the static charge. Following this tip will make a world of difference in increasing the ease of your ID card printing operation!
