80 Zebra ZXP Series 8 Card Printer User’s Manual P1045430-002
4: Printer Settings and Adjustments
Printing Preferences
- Card type in use allows the user to specify the type of card being used. Based on the
selection, the printer automatically adjusts the transfer roller temperature and input
and output transfer speed for optimum print quality.
If none of the provided card types matches the actual user card type, or you are unable
to achieve desired results using any of the provided card types, then you may specify
your own parameters using the Custom 1 (arrow below) and Custom 2 selections; see
Appendix B, Setting Custom Card Specifications, for details.
For help setting the specifications for your card type, contact the Zebra Card

Note that the you can rename Custom 1 and Custom 2 and then save the renamed
card type for future use. The card name must be less than 21 characters (printable
ASCII characters only). This change is persistent; i.e., on hardware host reboot or
printer initialization, the card type list will always display the user-defined name.
Also, any driver or firmware update will not overwrite user-defined Custom 1 or
Custom 2 card settings.
• In the case of multiple hosts to one printer, all driver hosts will see the new card
type list with the customer-specific name change(s).
• In the case of multiple printers the user will be responsible for editing and
managing consistent custom card name(s) across multiple printers.
- Image size is either Edge to edge (648 x 1024) or CR-80 Standard (578 x 952). Note
that the printing size is specified in pixels.
