As part of this, the authentication method for Mifare changed as well as how the sectors are read. It is recommended that customers migrate their application to be Mifare compliant. This will make it much easier for application developers to manage multiple reader types in the future. Developers who need application control of printing preferences, application control of card movement, or require data from the card must use the SDK.
Software Developers Kit Reference Guide. Card Printer Driver This kit provides codes samples, libraries, and documentation to software developers for developing applications that work with SP Plus Series card printers or CP Plus Series card printers, or the SP Series SN through card printers and CP Series card printers using the Yes No. Product Links. Drivers Version Diagnostics bit, Diagnostics version Smart Card Drivers. Developer Tools. NOTE: The v8. Chat with Entrust.
It looks like our HSM agents are not available right now. Would you like us to contact you? We look forward to talking with you.
Hold the Ready key firmly until the. You hear the internal components initialize and the printer starts processing the card. Press the Ready key once to un-pause the printer. If the test card does not print, or if the printer does not initialize, contact your service provider. The pattern will be monochrome dots, not colored dots, if the printer uses a monochrome ribbon.
The printer can also be purchased with the Open Card option. This section describes the requirements and functionality of each format. The printer can be used with the SmartDriver installed on a PC. The SmartDriver receives data from your Windows application and formats it for the printer. The printer can print one or both sides of the card duplex printing , print in landscape or portrait orientation, and print in full color or one color.
The driver formats renders the data for each card. It can accept text, photos, backgrounds, logos and other elements such as bar codes if they are supported by the Windows application. With the corresponding options, the printer can encode a magnetic stripe on the front or back of the card and read or program a smart card. It shows typical features of a card printed using the SmartDriver and the printer. When you print from the SmartDriver, any errors on the printer cause a message to be displayed on the PC, in addition to being displayed on the printer LCD panel.
Datacard recommends that you use buttons on the message box to clear the message from the printer and driver. This also clears the message from the LCD panel. Using the driver provides you with advanced features including retrying the card. Organizations that use operating systems other than Windows can print cards without inserting a PC between the host computer and the printer provided that the systems can generate an ASCII data stream. For organizations that currently send data tagged with Open Card commands to a printer or embosser, the printer can produce printed cards from the same data stream.
Or, you can use the Card Layout menus to define card designs that reside in the printer and format the data. The Open Card option supports printing text, printing bar codes, printing logos, and encoding magnetic stripe data on a card. For text, you can choose from several fonts and sizes that are printer-resident. For bar codes, you can also choose from several bar code fonts for different types of bar codes and sizes. For graphics, you can download up to four black-and-white logo files to the printer and choose where to place the files on the card.
The printer does not provide the ability to download a different graphic for each card. Each text or graphic field can be rotated independently. In addition, the entire card design can be rotated to change the relationship of printing to the magnetic stripe.
For magnetic stripe data, you can define encoding formats in the printer using SmartDriver Diagnostics and then send up to three tracks of data with a magnetic stripe option. After configuring, you can use the host computer to send data and print cards. The Open Card format supports printing with one color on one side of the card in landscape mode.
If you use a fullcolor ribbon in a full-color printer when you send Open Card data, the printer will use only the K panel in the ribbon and ignore the color and topcoat panels.
The magnetic stripe if it is encoded must be located on the side of the card opposite the printing. The following card shows some of the features available using the Open Card format.
This guide provides information for fixing problems. Use the Ready key on the LCD panel to clear the message from the printer. The Open Card features are typically used with an Ethernet connection and a network. The following table summarizes the requirements and features for each data format. It adjusts to any power within this range. The weight depends on the supplies and options installed. The card input hopper is 9. Do not use the printer in a dirty environment. Do not use the printer in a closed compartment.
Do not block air flow around the printer. These tools are part of the network operating system and a computer operating system; they are not provided with the printer. When the printer is set up on the network where cards are produced, network support personnel use one or more utilities to view and monitor the network.
If you are not using the SmartDriver, you can use a command prompt to type commands and use utilities to set up the printer. You might also find a command prompt helpful for network testing. Ping is a network utility that obtains a response from a device connected to the network. It is a quick way to query an IP address to verify that it is functioning on the network. The printer responds to Ping. If the printer includes the Open Card option and you plan to send Open Card data, you might use several additional tools, including the following:.
Most operating systems include a telnet utility. A networked printer is connected to a network without a host computer between the printer and network.
Depending on printer options and your needs, the printer can be connected to a print server and then to the network. A host computer can connect to several networked printers at a time, and several host computers can connect to one printer. To connect a printer to a network, you need the following:. An Ethernet cable is not supplied with the printer. Network support personnel use utilities to set up and monitor the network and devices on the network. If networking is set up on the computer, log into the network.
If it uses static IP addressing, obtain the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address from network support personnel. You can also use the default IP address in the printer. DHCP is the printer default. When you have successfully completed these steps, continue with connecting the printer to a network. On operating systems with permissions, such as Windows XP, make sure you are logged in as the Administrator during setup.
Work with your network support personnel if needed to obtain the print server name and IP address. Instead, set up the print server on the network step 3 above. Follow the instructions provided with the adapter to install it. Find the settings in the print server information. Do not connect the print server to the printer at this time.
Instead, set up the print server on the network step 4 above. Do not perform these steps if you use a print server to connect the printer to the network. First, view the current mode of addressing:.
If you are not connected to a DHCP network, the IP address will be blank until you connect the printer to the network. Continue with step 9. The address byte shows 3 digits when it can be changed and the cursor appears under the right-most digit. Press and hold the Up or Down Arrow key to change the value quickly.
The current value appears with the cursor under the first byte. Use the same process as for the IP address to set the subnet mask. Use the same process as for the IP address to set the gateway address. The Status light shows amber yellow and then blinks green.
