Selecting the Card Size

Select either the CR-80 or CR-79 for the appropriate card size option from the two (2)
standard card sizes.

When designing a card format, always set the card size or page size within the card
design program to the exact Print Length and Width dimensions listed in the Printer
driver.

The dimensions of the total print area for each card size will appear in the Print Width and
Print Length boxes.

Step

Procedure

1

Select CR-80 to print onto standard "credit card" sized cards.

OR

Select CR-79 to print onto slightly smaller CR-79 sized cards (3.303

L x

2.051W/83.9mm L x 52.1mm W).

The CR-79 card adhesive-backed card is used in applications where they are
printed and applied to thicker proximity cards.

Make a simple card size adjustment to the Printer's Card Thickness
Adjustment Lever if printing with CR-79 sized cards to decrease the accepted
card thickness.
