H InterfacingPrinter to a TURBO Series

Switch off the printer, remove the UltraSecure dongle, and attach the cable from the laminator to the printer.

Switch both units ON, and allow to warm up. Print and laminate a test card by pressing the Test Card button at the rear of the printer.

Position the laminator so that the location tab at the card entry slot is located in the card exit slot of the Magicard printer.

Check that the DIP Switch Section 1 (brown) is in the DOWN position (see Section F4).

Notes:

1.If the Magicard card printer prints a card before the laminator is ready (ie not fully armed up, or still laminating the previous card), the card is held within the body of the printer until the laminator is ready, and further printing is queued.

2.All new Turbo printers are configured to detect the presence of a Sicura laminator. If UltraSecure is de-selected in the Windows driver, the Turbo produces cards with no overcoat.

3.If UltraSecure is turned on however, the printer will copy the standard or key-based security logo onto the card, laying down solid overcoat only in the area of the logo itself.

4.When cards are subsequently overlaminated, the result is a clearly visible ‘3D’ logo effect which is clearly visible in normal daylight.

5.When viewed under UV light, the logo fluoresces brightly, producing a security check against counterfeit IDs.
