The printer must be connected to a properly protected and grounded electrical installation.
1-3a Connecting the printer
Connection to the power supply
1. Connect the power cable to the power supply unit, then plug the power supply unit connecting into the printer.
2. Next, plug the end of the power cable into an earthed power socket.
3. The printer will power on: the control panel lights up showing that the printer is working properly. If the control panel does not light, then either
installation has not been carried out correctly or the printer is not working properly. Check the installation.
To save energy, the printer will automatically switch itself to standby mode after 10 minutes of inactivity. The printer switches to hibernation mode after
30 minutes in standby mode. The standby times can be configured in the BadgePass Print Suite. In standard standby mode, sending a print request
restarts the printer and quickly pressing the pushbutton (for 1 second) will exit the printer from hibernation mode.
Under no circumstances should you connect the USB data cable before installation of the printer driver is complete.
Connecting the USB cable
Before attempting any maintenance, ensure that the power cable is unplugged. For your personal safety, ensure that the cable and power supply unit
remain accessible, especially in the event of an emergency.
1-3 Installation
Refer to the section on printer driver installation for further details, and follow the instructions carefully.

1-3b Ribbons
BadgePass High Trust® ribbons are designed to optimize the operation of your printer. The use of ribbons from other suppliers is not recommended as damage to the printer could
occur and will also void the manufacturer’s warranty for the printer. For optimum print quality, BadgePass recommends that the printer is fully cleaned every time the ribbon is
changed. See the Servicing and Maintenance section of this manual.
The printer automatically recognizes the ribbon inserted.
