Loading Cards into the Printer (continued)
Step Procedure
Remove a stack of 50 or fewer cards from the card packaging. Do not touch the
area of the cards on which you intend to print. Oil or dirt from the hands can
impair print quality. Handle cards only along the edges.
Load the stack of cards into the Printer by depressing the spring loaded Card
Input Tray and pushing the stack all the way to the front of the Card Input
Hopper. Always load cards with the top or primary print side facing up.
If inserting cards with a magnetic stripe, be sure the magnetic stripe is positioned
downward and that the stripe is oriented toward the rear of the Printer. If
inserting smart cards, be sure the end of the card containing the smart card chip
is inserted first.
Once the cards have been inserted, remove the top card and throw it away if you
suspect it has been contaminated with oil from the fingertips. Close the Printer’s
Top Cover.
