Installing Blank Cards into the Card Hopper (DTC1000,
DTC1000M, and DTC4000)
The Fargo DTC1000, DTC1000M, and DTC4000 Printer is capable of printing single load cards and
multiple feed cards (batch mode). To print using single feed, simply remove all cards from the Card
Hopper, leave the Card Hopper door closed and place a card in the single Feed Card Slot (which can be
used repeatedly).
Step Procedure
1 Pre-instruction.
Load the cards with the print side down and (if applicable) the magnetic strip
up and towards the front of the Printer.
Caution: Do not run the cards with a contaminated, dull or uneven
surface through the Printer.

Printing onto such cards will ultimately lead to poor print quality and will
greatly reduce the life of the Printhead.

Card Types include PVC or PVC finish.

Cards eject into the Output Hopper or Reject Hopper.

Both Hoppers hold 100 cards.

Certain types of smart card chips are raised slightly above the cards
surface, which may result in poor color transfer. Design the card with white
space surrounding the chip.

To print using single feed, simply remove all cards from the Card Hopper,
leave the Card Hopper door closed and place a card in the single Feed
Card Slot (which can be used repeatedly).
