User’s Guide for the ImageCard® IV Printer
Figure 8-6: Windows test page, landscape orientation
The Windows test page can have a different appearance, depending on the
operating system and how the printer is connected to the PC.
The Windows test page is generated by Microsoft Windows. The small size of the
card, compared to printer paper, means that some of the text is not printed on the
card.
Magnetic stripe test card
If the printer includes a magnetic stripe module, you can print a magnetic stripe test
card. The card uses the magnetic stripe settings in the Properties, Default Document
Properties, or Printing Preferences dialog box.
Use this card to verify that the printer encodes a card correctly.
If the printer is set to print a custom magnetic stripe format, it will not print this test
card successfully. The driver will display a message indicating that the data does
not meet the requirements for the magnetic stripe track or that it cannot read the
data.
Print a magnetic stripe test card
The printer must be connected to the PC with the driver installed, and both printer
and PC must be running.
1 Open the Printer Toolbox if needed. See Using the Printer Toolbox” on
page 6-10.
2 Make sure that magnetic stripe cards are loaded in the card cartridge. (See
Loading cards” on page 3-5 for information on loading cards.)
3 Click once on the Print Mag Stripe Card button in the Printer Toolbox. The printer
driver formats card data for the type of module installed, as follows:
