Installing ID Card Printers
This chapter guides the installer through the installation process for the various ID Card printers that can
be used for Verify.NET. The following sections are included:
• Listing of compatible ID Card printers
• Detailed instructions for installing printer drivers
• Post driver installation instructions to enable printing in Verify.NET
Getting Ready
Before starting on any procedure in this chapter, ensure you are logged in as a computer admin. In most
cases this is the ‘techco’ user account for the local machine. Please contact the tech coordinator of the
school for this information.
Additionally, make sure that Deep Freeze, Fortress, or any other security software is disabled. Installing
printers and software while security software is active can cause error messages or a complete reversal of
the installation process on a computer reboot.
Supported Printers
Verify.NET is capable of sending a print job to any printer that has a windows driver (shows up under
the Windows XP Control Panel under Printer and Faxes). Although support is not guaranteed for all
printers, the following printers have been tested to successfully print an ID Card:
• Eltron/Zebra P420/P420C
• Zebra P420i
• Fargo DTC400/400e
• Fargo DTC550
Determining Printer Model
Eltron, Zebra, and Fargo printers display the printer model on the front of the printer. Other printer
manufacturers will have different modeling specifications. Check with your vendor or place of purchase
for further details.
Installing ID Card Printer Driver
If the driver for the printer you are using has already been installed, you can skip this chapter.
