Installation on Windows

aLocate the icon for the Printer Toolbox in the system tray, usually the lower right corner of the desktop.

bRight-click the icon to display the popup menu.

cChoose Exit.

5Prepare the printer and power it on. See "Preparing the Printer".

6Attach the flat end of the USB cable to the USB port on the PC or on a device connected to the PC.

7Attach the square end of the USB cable to the printer.

8The operating system detects

the new device. It might display a popup during installation.

If the operating system does not display a popup within a few minutes, check the Printers window to

see if the icon for the new printer is displayed. At times, the software installs without displaying the popup. If the Wizard does not appear and the icon is not present, see "Installation Troubleshooting" for more information.

9The operating system usually displays a message when the printer has been successfully installed.

10The operating system usually uses the existing driver files to install the driver for this printer. Insert the driver CD only if you are prompted for it.

Using more than one printer on a PC

When using more than one printer on a PC, keep the following in mind:

Select the printer to use in the ID software or other application. Card jobs will be sent to the selected printer even if more than one card printer is attached to the PC.

When messages are displayed, the title bar of the message box displays the name of the printer causing the message. Keep track of which printer has which name.

Each printer has its own icon in the Printers window, and each printer has separate Properties and Printer Preferences dialog boxes. Settings are not shared among printers.

The PC has a Printer Toolbox for each printer installed. Open each Printer Toolbox by choosing Start > Programs > Card Printer > Printer name. When the Printer Toolbox is open, the printer name appears in the title bar.
