User’s Guide for Select™ Platinum Series™ Printers

The clearance required is:

• 3 inches (7.5 cm) at the back of the printer, for access to the power switch and for

ventilation.

• 2 inches (5.1 cm) on the right side of the printer to remove the card output tray.

• 6 inches (15.3 cm) on the left side of the printer to remove and replace the card

cartridge.

• 3 inches (7.5 cm) in back of the printer for ventilation and for clearance for cables.

• 13.25 inches (33.7 cm) above the printer to allow the cover to open and to change

supplies.

PC and software specifications

The Select printer must be used with a PC that runs the printer driver. The PC also

runs a card creation application that captures and organizes the data to appear on

each card.

To support the printing speed that the Select printer can deliver, the PC must meet the

following requirements:

• Have a 233 MHz (or faster) Pentium MMX-, Pentium II-, Pentium III-, or Pentium

IV-compatible processor. Datacard recommends a 500 MHz (or faster) processor.

• Have at least 128 MB of memory (RAM). Datacard recommends 256 MB or more

of memory.

• Have 60 MB or more of hard disk space available to store the printer driver and

provide working space for preparing card data. (Additional components, such as

Diagnostics, might require more space.) Datacard recommends at least 100 MB

of hard disk space before installing the printer driver.

The PC, including processor speed, memory, operating system, applications

running, and available hard disk space, can have a dramatic effect on card

processing speed. The operating system or applications can require more or

faster resources than the printer driver. Meet the most demanding requirements

for the operating system, application, and drivers running on the PC.

• Have one of the following ports or connections:

– An ECP parallel port (any operating system)

• The port should be configured as an ECP port (using the PC's BIOS). If

the existing parallel port is not ECP capable, obtain and install an ECP

capable parallel port for printer use. For information on configuring the

parallel port, see “PC port settings” on page C-1.

• If your card creation application uses a security key, put the security key

on a different parallel port, if available. The security key can be on a

compatible-mode (IBM AT-mode) port. The printer data cable must

remain on the ECP parallel port (usually LPT1). You might receive

“security key not found” messages, “parallel port data error” messages, or

might notice that the card creation application operates slowly. If the

security key requires a compatible-mode port, obtain and install a
