A large number of Windows applications permit the printing of a document (for example, the tools
of the Microsoft office suite: MS-Word, MS-Access, MS-Excel, MS-Power Point).
To help you familiarize yourself with formatting a card and setting the parameters for its formatting
and printing, we offer the following example:
Using Microsoft
®
Word
After first setting up the Evolis default printer:
■
Start the MS-Word application.
■
Click File on the menu bar, then click on Formatting.
■
The Paper tab proposes Paper format; select type ‘Card CR80’.
■
Under the Margins tab, set all the margins to
‘0’, then under Orientation, select Landscape.
■
Close the window by clicking on OK.
Your Word window should now look like this:
You are ready to personalize your card by entering
the different composition components:
■

Please note that this example does not propose to initiate the operator on operating the
MS-Word application. Its purpose is simply to establish a relationship between the gra-
phics of a card and the parameters of the Evolis printer driver that are necessary for the
printing operation.
Setting the parameters of the Evolis print driver from MS-Word:
■
Click on File on the menu bar, then click
on Print.
■
The dialog box informs you that the
Evolis printer has been selected. Now
click on Properties. The Evolis printer
drive dialog box appears.
The printing parameters for this graphics example are:
1. Graphic
dialog box, select:
■
Type of ribbon: R3411 - 5 Panel color ribbon - YMCKO
■
Orientation: Landscape.
■
Copy (number to be determined).
2. Advanced settings
dialog box, select:
■
Black panel adjustment: all black dots.
■
Varnish panel adjustment: full varnish.
3.
Click on
Apply
if you modify a parameter, then on
OK
to successively close each dialog box.
4.
Having returned to the main window, click
OK
to start printing.
Consult the help of each dialog box, if necessary.
