3. Optionally, encrypts data transactions with the printer for secure printing.
4. Sends the prepared data to the printer.
5. Checks the printer for card completion.

Printer/Driver Communication
The printer communicates with the PC through the Card Printer Driver using either a USB cable or
an Ethernet cable. For both connection types, the printer treats communication as if the PC is
connected over a network.
 You can update printer settings using the Printer Manager web interface. Refer to the
printer’s Installation and Administrator’s Guide for information about using Printer Manager.
 You can customize applications to control card personalization features through the Card
Printer Driver. If you use a customized application, follow the instructions in your application.
 Secure printing is available on current models of SD, CD, and CE series printers and the CR805

printer is configured to communicate securely. For more information, refer to “Use the Card
Printer Driver for Secure Printing” on page 26.
The information included in this Guide does not apply to all printers supported by
