●
●
While printing is in progress, do not turn off the power of the host computer, or switch it to the sleep or standby mode. Doing so may stop the
movement of the cards inside the printer.
Plug the USB cable in correctly and firmly.
Do not connect the cable to the USB connectors on the monitor or keyboard of the host computer. The printer may not be correctly recognized.
When using a USB hub, make use of one that is directly connected to
the host computer.
 Turn off the power of the printer and host computer.
 Plug the other end of the LAN cable into the LAN cable connection terminal of the host computer.
 Plug the USB cable into the USB cable connection terminal at the rear
of the printer," and pass the" ' page 7 USB cable through the cable
clamp.
Connecting Multiple Printers
To connect multiple printer units to one host computer via USB, assign
a different unit number from 1 to 10 to each of the printers.
"Unit number setting" （' page 23）
● To connect multiple printers to the same network, set a different IP address for each printer.
●
Note:
●
As illustrated in the diagram, do not pull the USB cable excessively toward the cable clamp. Doing so may subject the USB connector of the
printer to stress, thus resulting in connection problems.
 Plug the other end of the USB cable into the USB cable connection
terminal of the host computer.
Connecting with a LAN Cable
Note:
●
●
●
Plug the LAN cable in correctly and firmly.
Make use of a shielded LAN cable to avoid any malfunction.
If a USB cable is also connected at the same time when the power is
turned on, priority will be given to USB.

●
The optimal retransfer and bend remedy settings vary according to the
card type as well as environment in which the printer is used. As such,
set the values after trying out under the environment where it is to be
used.
If the retransfer or bend remedy settings are different from the preset
temperature of the printer, it may take a while before printing starts.
There is only one standard retransfer temperature. Altering the retransfer temperature on one side changes the temperature on the other side
as well.
Bend remedy is effective when printing on only one side. Setting bend
remedy to a high temperature during double-sided printing may cause
the card to deform significantly.
As such, select the “Disable remedy” button during double-sided printing.
When bend remedy is disabled using the “Disable remedy” button, the
speed is automatically set to the maximum value (+2).

Displays the configuration of optional devices.
Note:
●
When a value other than ”None” is shown in the contact IC encoder or
non-contact IC encoder field, this means the configuration allows

Security Settings.
●
In-line encoding is possible when all the settings in the [Encode] tab
are enabled.
Encoding data can be sent to the printer through the printer driver using the special character strings (prefixes) described below.
This function is called as “in-line encoding”.
Adding a prefix (tilde (~),?, or numeric characters) at the beginning of a
text string enables the string to be recognized as encoding data. Character strings including prefixes are not printed on the card when they
are recognized as encoding data.
No.

When I print a card using the UV ink, the picture of the upper
right position is not printed.
In the case of UV print, the printer always prints the network (Ethernet)
MAC address. When you set the “Number of panels using the retransfer film” to “1 panel” in this case, the printer does not print the picture
inside of MAC address area.
Please arrange the picture so that printing of the YMCK ink does not
overlap in MAC address area.
When you set the “Number of panels using the retransfer film” to “2
panels”, the printer can print the whole picture using the YMCK ink.

How can I print black color using the Resin K ink ?
● Choose the [Mode] item of [Printing] tab except “1.YMC”.

How can I print the picture with the UV ink without the background color ?
Paint over the background of picture by a specific color using graphic
software etc.
Set the specific color by [No printing color] of [UV ink] dialog.
If background color is the same as part of the picture, it will not be printed. So please select background color carefully.

Although I chose the picture files in the [UV ink] dialog, the
picture is not printed with the UV ink.
The picture files do not meet the supporting types.

●
How can I print a card using the “Security erase” ?
●
Choose either “2. K” or “3. YMCK” in the [Mode] item of [Printing] tab,
and tick the [Security erase] check box.
Then, the “Security erase” function to resin K ink will become effective.
The “Security erase” function is available only when using the YMCK
ink.
Please consult our authorized dealers for details.
I want to memorize contents of “Printing Preferences”.
A When you click the [Save ...] button of [Setup] tab, contents of “Printing Preferences” can be saved at a file. When you click the [Load...]
