Plastic ID Card

Card format

 

IDpack Professional supports CR-80 plastic ID card formats;  the standard dimensions are 85.60 mm x 53.98 mm (3.375 in x 2.125 in).

 

Double Side

 

clip0043

 

1.If your plastic ID card printer supports dual-side printing, you can select Double Side Printer to be able to design the front and  back of the ID card and IDpack Producer will flip the card automatically inside the printer. IDpack Professional supports all double side plastic ID card printers.

 

2.If your printer does not support dual-side printing, you can select Simulate Double Side Printer. You will be able to design the front and back of the ID card. When printing the card with IDpack Producer, the first side will be printed and IDpack will ask you to flip the card and put it back in your card feeder. IDpack will then print the back of the card.

 

clip0076 Note

Some printers offer a Manual Card Feeder option instead of the standard feeder, which can help you with the Simulate Double Side Printer feature, so you can flip and re-insert the card faster. Check with your manufacturer to see if it's available.

 

Front Orientation - Back Orientation

 

You have the option of changing the orientation from landscape to portrait.

 

Printer Manufacturer

None by default

 

 Select your manufacturer's printer model; this option will help you configure your Magstripe encoder or Smartcard station more easily. If your manufacturer is not listed, select Other.

 

Show Punch

None by default

 

When selected, the Designer displays a Slot Punch at the position selected on the Badge Layout. This is only for design purposes; it will not be printed on the card.

 

Enable Magstripe Encoder

Unchecked by default

When checking the checkbox, you will be able to click the clip0041 icon and open a window to enter your options for the Magstripe Encoder. This function is only supported by certain models of printers. Please check with your printer manual to see if the Magstripe encoder is available with your printer.

Enable Smartcard Docking Station

Unchecked by default

When checking the checkbox, you will be able to click the clip0042 icon and open the window to enter your options for the Smartcard Docking Station. This function is only supported by certain models of printers. Please check with your printer manual to see if the Smartcard docking station is available with your printer.
