3.1.1 Selecting the Card Size
Step Procedure
1 Select the Card Size option:
• CR-80: This selection is the default form size for the printer. This will print a 2.125 X 3.374
image including a .04 over-bleed on each of the 4 sides making the overall form size 2.204 X
3.452 (56 X 87.7 mm).
• Custom: Use this selection to create a custom form size from 1.0 x 3.0 to 2.204 to 3.452 (25.4
X 76.2 mm to 56 X 87.7 mm).
• The dimensions of the total print area for each card size appears in the Print Width and Print
Length boxes.
• These print area dimensions are .04" (1mm) larger than the actual card size. This is so the
Printer can overprint images ensuring they appear Edge-to-Edge when transferred to the card.
• When designing a card format, set the card or page size within the card design program to the
exact Print Length and Width dimensions listed in the Printer Driver.
