Windows PC.

Using the LCD panel, select “SmartDriver” as the data format. See “Set the Data
Format” on page 55 for the steps to follow.

In the application, select the SmartDriver as the current printer. (Your printer might
have a different name.)

Choose the printer settings that correspond to the cards.

Set the paper size to CR80 Card 2.13" x 3.38." Set margins to match the driver.

Capture, format, and save the card data.
— Format the text to print using TrueType fonts.
— Text formatted as Black will print using the K (solid black) ribbon panel.
— Other colors are printed using the color panels (if you use a full-color print ribbon).

When the card data is ready, choose Print to send the card to the printer.
The card shown is the sample card printed from the Printer Toolbox. It shows the features available when printing
from the SmartDriver using a full-color ribbon. (The card has less printing if using a monochrome ribbon.) See

Series Info Central
for detailed information about set up and printing using the SmartDriver.
