Therefore, you must click “DoPrint” to print in SBS mode. This function is for detail control of printer. 4. Click “Close” button to close CSD file. (4) Batch Batch is to repeat encoding/decoding test continuously. In the Repeat, you input the number of repeat and click “Batch Start”, then the test is run as many times as the number of set. When you check “Include Card In/Out”, each time the printer bring a card from input hopper and perform an encoding test and eject the card. But if not, encoding test will be done only by one card. At that time, if there is no card in the printer, the printer bring a card into the printer from input hopper and repeat the encoding test on the card, and if there is a card in the printer, the encoding test is performed on the card repeatedly. “Card Holding” is activated when “Include Card In/Out” is ticked. When “Card Holding” is ticked and the repeat number is set, the printer repeats the encoding test as many times as the number of set in the “Card Holding” without ejection. When it is completed, the printer ejects the card and brings a new card into the printer and starts testing. 63 In the Setting, “Retry” is to retry the encoding test when the error occurred. “Prompt on Error” is to display Pop up Message when the error occurred. If not, Error number will be counted without message. The number of error is displayed at Error section. (5) Encoding Magnetic: Magnet Stripe Encoding “Read” is to read and display the data from magnetic stripe card. It is composed of “Do Read” and “Read All Buffer” and runs “Do Read” and “Read All Buffer” sequentially. “Do Read” is to read the data from magnetic stripe card and store the data in the buffer. “Read All Buffer” is to transmit the date stored in the buffer to PC. If the track number is ticked, the data of the ticked track is only transmitted to PC. “Write” is to write the data to the magnetic stripe. It is composed of “Write All Buffer” and “Do Write” and runs “Write All Buffer” and “Do Write” sequentially. “Write All Buffer” is to transmit the data to the buffer. “Do Write” is to write the data stored in the buffer to the magnetic stripe of card.

To get the optimized printing quality on the printed card, the genuine ribbon of IDP should be used to print cards by using SMART printer. SMART printer can recognize the genuine ribbon by reading the encoded information on the RFID Tag of the ribbons. To support user’s various requirements for printing cards appropriately, many kinds of ribbons should be provided and SMART printer should distinguish the type of installed ribbon. To distinguish the installed ribbon type correctly, SMART printer reads the encoded information on the RFID Tag of the ribbons. According to the installed ribbon type and the ribbon supplier, the printer driver of SMART printer can select the color profile and create the printing data. 93
