134 Working with Printer Options
ID Works Standard and Enterprise Version 5 Administrator’s Guide
application. See the ID Works Administrator online help topic “Assign
printer plug-ins” for step-by-step instructions. Printer plug-ins must be
assigned on each computer that prints cards with your ID Works
project.
You specify the magnetic stripe encoder plug-in to use by selecting a
device on the Encoding tab of the magnetic stripe field properties
dialog. See “Magnetic Stripe Field” on page 29.
Printing Multiple Copies of Cards
When a Production operator specifies that two or more copies of a
card be printed, the exact method of fulfilling the request depends on
the printer plug-in specified.
If the generic printer plug-in is selected, the plug-in will send the
number of copies specified to the printer driver and will create a
single print job.
The behavior of other printer plug-ins is described in Online
Reference Library documents. To access the Online Reference
Library, from the Windows Start button select Programs, Datacard,
ID Works, User Documentation, and then Online Reference
Library.
Printing Graphics with the
Card Printer’s K-panel
You have two ways of controlling whether and how the black panel of
the printer ribbon (the K-panel) is used to print graphics. You can
specify K-panel printing on a field-by-field basis with the field property
sheet or you can specify that all graphics on a card side be printed
with the K-panel using a utility in the ID Works Administrator
application.
