Using your Card Printer

Connecting the Printer to your Computer

Your card printer is designed to be used with nearly any IBM-PC or compatible running Windows 3.1x, Windows 95/98, or Windows NT. A minimum of a 486 DX class computer with 8MB RAM or higher is required. For best performance, a Pentium-class computer with 32 MB RAM or higher is recommended.

The printer is equipped with an ECP-compatible, high-speed Centronics parallel port. This port is the means through which the printer receives data from your computer. To connect the printer to your computer, obtain a shielded, bi-directional parallel cable and refer to the following steps:

Step Procedure

1Connect the Centronics-type parallel side to the printer.

Snap the fastening clips into place. (Note: The extra port shown in the previous illustration is an Auxiliary Port (subminiature-D connector) included and used only on units equipped with an optional smart card contact station.)

If your unit is equipped with a contact station and you have questions regarding its use, please contact your authorized reseller.
