Card Size Selection

Default = CR80 Card

    Controls the print size.  When printing on CR79 cards, the image is slightly smaller than a standard CR80 card.  This option will tell the printer to make the necessary changes in how it prints to compensate for the size difference.

Hand Feed

Default value = Off

*This option applies to the Rio printer model only.

When enabled, the printer will accept cards fed by hand into the front entrance of the printer instead of feeding cards from the card hopper at the rear of the printer.

Number Of Copies

Default = 1

    Controls the number of times the image is printed when you send a card design to the printer, for example if you set the number of copies to ‘5’ and send a single card design to print, the printer will produce 5 identical cards.

Card Reject On

Default value = Off

*This option applies to the Tango and Tango +L printer models only.

When enabled, if a card fails to encode (during magnetic or proximity encoding) it will be placed in a separate Reject Hopper instead of the main card output hopper. Since this option requires the use of the flipper mechanism it is unique to the Tango.

 

Eject Side

Default value = Front Upwards

*This option applies to the Tango printer model only.

Determines which side of the printed cards is facing upwards when ejected into the output hopper.
