Tips: Handling cards
•Do not open the card hopper when “Loading” is displayed on the LCD panel.
•Do not touch the surface of cards before printing them. (Oils on hands will reduce printing quality.)
•Handle cards by the edges or wear cotton gloves.
•Cards can stick together. Slide or fan cards to separate the edges.
•Orient all cards the same way.
•Do not use cards that are bent or otherwise damaged.
•See “Supplies” on page 67 for specific card information.
The card hopper can hold approximately 250, .030” (.75mm) cards. The cards are loaded and held in position with a card bracket. Make sure that magnetic stripe or smart cards are loaded in the proper orientation for processing.
1Open the card hopper.
2Slide the card bracket to the left until it latches.
3Insert cards. See the diagrams below for the correct card orientation.
—Load magnetic stripe cards with the magnetic stripe down and facing the card bracket.
—Load smart cards with the smart card chip toward the back of the card hopper, facing the card feed roller.
4Slide the card bracket back into position carefully so cards are not disturbed and your fingers do not get pinched.
5Close the card hopper.
