Printer Setting Menu
From the Printer Setting menu, a WebUser can view all settings and make
adjustments to the following menu choices:
• Behavior — Set ribbon initialize to ON or OFF
• Front Panel — Set LCD backlight, set the sensitivity of the keypad, and turn
the printer’s speaker ON or OFF.
Communication
The Communication page of the Printer Manager displays how the card printer is
connected to your PC or network.
ActivityLog
The Activity Log menu choice displays technical information about the printer. A
WebAdmin or WebService access level can change settings in the Activity Log to
help troubleshoot and isolate a card production problem.
Behavior
A WebUser access level allows the user to Enable or Disable the Ribbon Initialize
feature in the printer. The Ribbon Initialize feature automatically advances the
ribbon to the beginning of the next color panel set when the printer is powered
on. Cards printed immediately after printer power on will print with the correct
color panels. Set to Disabled to begin printing using the panel in position.
To Set the Ribbon Initialize Feature:
1. Choose Enable or Disable from the Current Value dropdown list.
2. Click the Set Current button.
A message will indicate that the setting has been changed. The Set Current button
updates the settings to the values entered. Click the Restore Default button to
change to the Default Values listed above.
