Creating a Sample Card
Before you begin a new printing session, print a sample card to ensure that the cards will be
printed correctly. Follow the steps below to print your first card.
1. Open a new Microsoft Word document.
2. If the Zebra Printer was not set as the default printer, select the ZXP Series 1 Card Printer
as the default.
3. From the Microsoft Word document., set the Page Layout:
a. Size: CR-80, ISO 7810 format, 2.12 inch by 3.38 inch (54 mm by 86 mm) Card
b. Orientation: Portrait or Landscape
c. Margins: Top, Bottom, Left, and Right = 0 (zero).
4. The card appears as a Microsoft Word document.
5. Design a card with both black and colored text and with colored images similar to the
sample card shown below.
Printing the Sample Card
Once you complete creating your sample card, you are ready to print. Ensure your printer has a
True Colours
TM
Card Printer Ribbon Cartridge installed and there is card stock in the card
feeder. See Section 3 for instructions on installing the ribbon and loading the cards.
