Using the printer
This chapter provides information to help you run 
the Magna Class printer effectively and 
efficiently. It describes:
How to work with printer settings and data
How to make cards
How to remove completed cards and rejected cards
How to respond to messages
How to shut down the system
Working with printer settings and data
At installation, the Magna Class printer driver uses default 
settings for the printer. At setup, you need to view, change, and 
save printer and driver settings. As you use the printer, you might 
change the card design and need to change settings to reflect 
that, or you might need to view settings or data about the printer.
If you use a card creation application specifically designed to 
create cards, that application might include card settings that 
override driver settings.
Printer driver settings and data are organized differently for Windows 
NT and Windows 98. Use the section that applies to the operating 
system you use.
Settings and data for Windows NT
Settings that control the printing and personalization of the card are in 
the Default Document Properties dialog box for the printer. These 
settings include:
Card design settings, such as landscape or portrait orientation 
Topcoat pattern during the print cycle
Printer supplies used
Cleaning interval
Magnetic stripe encoding formats and coercivity
