6 About the Printer
Multi-Hopper Lock The multi-hopper lock secures all six input hoppers. The lock
can be opened using a key, or by using the Card Printer Driver
SDK with your application. Refer to the Windows XPS Driver
Software Development Kit Programmer’s Reference Guide for
more information.
Sending a command to open the lock opens all locks on the
printer and on any attached component.
Lock Bar Release
Button (B1)
The release button (B1) releases the lock bars in front of the
input hopper cartridges. Slide the button to the left to release
the bars. You must have unlocked the multi-hopper using the
key or a software command before the lock bars can be
released.
Hopper Lock Bars The lock bars rotate to the left to allow access to the hopper
cartridge doors, so that you can load cards into the cartridges.
Cartridge Release Buttons The cartridge release buttons allow you to remove the
cartridge from the multi-hopper unit. Push in the buttons,
squeeze the cartridge, and pull it out from the multi-hopper.
Notes:
 You do not need to remove a hopper cartridge to load
cards.
 Hopper cartridges can be removed for secure storage.
Exception Slide The exception slide allows you to insert a single card into the
printer without unlocking the multi-hopper or opening a
hopper cartridge. Refer to “Use the Multi-Hopper Exception
Slide” on page 33.
