Back Side Only

Rotate 180º

Mag Encode Only

Write Direct to Port

NOTE

Select this option to print the back side of a card only. This option allows you to conveniently print the back side of preprinted cards which also must have their magnetic stripe or smart card chip encoded. Be sure to load cards in the usual fashion as described in Section 4-D. Note that when this option is selected, the Duplex Printing option is automatically disabled.

This option allows you to rotate your image 180¼ when printed. Select this option if you wish to change the position of your image in relation to the set location of a cardÕs magnetic stripe.

Select this option if you wish to send only the magnetic track data of a card format to the printer. This unique feature enables the Color ID Card Printer to function solely as a magnetic stripe encoder so you can easily encode or re-encode preprinted cards without wasting additional time, effort, or printing supplies.

Selecting this option provides the fastest print processing when printing through a standard parallel port which is not ECP compatible or when printing exclusively from Windows 3.1x. When selected, this option allows the printer driver to bypass the Windows 3.1x Print Manager or the print spooler of Windows 95 and to send all print data directly to the Color ID Card Printer. This option devotes all of your system resources to the current print job, thereby increasing overall print speed. When the print job is finished, your system resources will again be released and devoted to the normal function of your on-screen applications.

Depending upon the processing speed and brand of your computer, you may or may not need to select this option when printing with the Color ID Card Printer. For most computers with a non-ECP compatible parallel port, selecting this option will enhance the speed of the rasterizing and printing process. In this case, the Write Direct to Port option should be selected. For some computers, however, this option may either not be supported by the particular brand of PC or simply may not be necessary due to the PCÕs fast processing speed. In this case, the Write Direct to Port option should not be selected.

This option will not function properly if using any type of external printer buffer. When using a printer buffer, all print jobs should be sent through the system print
