Product Overview
The printer described in this User Guide provides full color dye-sublimation or monochrome thermal
transfer printing on standard 54x86 mm plastic cards. PVC, PVC Composite, PET, ABS and PET cards are
supported. It is managed from the computer through the USB port or via Ethernet/WiFi (accordingly with
varnished card product configuration).
The ribbon carrier, that comes with the printer, allows the ribbon to be replaced quickly and easily.
A number of options are available so that the printer can be configured to operate in different types of
environments:
•Magnetic encoder
•Smart Card Encoding Station
•Contact and Contactless Smart Card encoder
•10/100 Ethernet and/or 802-11 Wi-Fi connection
•Single Card Feed Option
•Connection for external smart card encoding
•Locking system for input Hopper, reject bin and ribbons.
Getting Started
The printer comes with a number of accessories; check carefully that they have been all received. This list
may vary depending on the location where the printer will be used.
The printer is shipped in special packaging designed to prevent damage during transportation. If any visible
damage is noticed upon reception, contact the dealer immediately.
Maintain the printer packaging intact and store it in a clean and dry place.
Note: If the printer has to be returned, it must be returned integrally with its full original packaging (box,
inner wedges and protective bags). If it is returned without its original packaging and any
components are damaged during transportation, such components will no longer be covered by the
warranty. Matica will also charge for the new packaging which will be required to ship the printer
back
.
