Using the Card Hopper Selection (DTC515/DTC525 only) option
This option only applies if using the DTC515 or DTC525 Card Printer models that provide a
dual-stack, 200-card capacity Card Input Hopper. (Note: The Printer driver always overrides
the LCD-based hopper selection. For example, the Printer will print from Hopper 2 even if
Hopper 1 (H-1) is selected on the LCD. This is because the print job was sent with Hopper 2
(selected from the Printer driver).)
Steps Procedure
1
Select First Available for these purposes:
To print from the hopper currently selected as indicated on the Printer's LCD.
To automatically switch (via the Printer) to the other hopper once the current
hopper runs out of cards. (Note: In most cases, this option is used when
both hoppers are loaded with the same type of cards such as in higher
volume batch printing applications.)
To manually designate the hopper just prior to each specific print job by
pressing the H-1 or H-2 softkey buttons.
OR
Select Hopper 1 to print only from Hopper 1.
Select this option and the hopper will not automatically switch to the other
hopper when running out of cards in Hopper 1.
Use this option when two different types of cards are loaded separately into
each hopper in order to print onto only one of those specific cards (e.g., Mag
stripe cards in Hopper 1 versus non stripe cards in Hopper 2).
OR
Select Hopper 2 to print only from Hopper 2 in this same fashion.
