Card output stacker

The card output stacker holds the cards after they have been processed. Both
completed cards and rejected cards go to the card output stacker.

Ready button

The Ready button allows you to pause the printer while printing a card, to clear an
error condition, to cancel a print job and delete all data for the job, or to create a
printer test card.

To pause the printer, press and hold the Ready button for three seconds or less.
Any cards being printed complete the current operation and stop. The status light
continues to blink green while the printer is paused. Press the Ready button to
resume printing.

If the printer is paused and a message box is displayed on the PC, use the
buttons on the message box to clear the message. If you press the Ready button
to clear the error, the current print job is cancelled. If you press the Ready button
to clear a pause condition, the job is not cancelled.

To cancel and clear the current print job, press and hold the Ready button for
between three and ten seconds. When the sound changes tone, release the
Ready button. The job is cleared from printer memory and the card is ejected.

You can verify that the printer is working correctly by making a printer test card.
See

“Making and evaluating test cards” on page 2-15
