In this section, you will find all the information you need to carry out a few simple checks that you may be asked to run by your BadgePass dealer to help you as effectively as possible.

4-2a Printing a technical test card

The technical test card must be printed when you receive your machine to ensure your printer is operating correctly. This card shows various items of technical information concerning
the machine (serial number, firmware, cleaning operations, print head, etc.). You may be asked for these by your BadgePass dealer.
Printing a technical test card

Wait for any current print jobs to finish.

Press the pushbutton for four to five seconds until it turns off.

Press and hold down the pushbutton again.

The pushbutton light comes on.
6.
Release the pushbutton once the light flashes.

The test card is printed (in color if a color ribbon is fitted in the printer, or monochrome if the ribbon is monochrome, and on both sides if the double-sided printing function
has been enabled).
8.
The printed card is ejected into the output hopper.
Printing the technical test card can also be launched from the BadgePass Print Suite.

4-2b Printing a graphic test card

The graphic test card is used to check the print quality in color or monochrome, the offsets, and whether the ribbon is synchronized correctly. To print the graphic test card, check
first of all that a ribbon and a card are present in the printer. Go to BadgePass Print Suite, select System information and click on the Test cards tab. Then click the Graphic
test card button. The card is printed and the printed card is ejected into the output hopper.
