ExpressCard's embosser wheel, and will most commonly be used in conjunction with the steps in section
5.22 How to Remove / Re-install Embosser Fonts and in section 5.21 How to Remove / Re-install the
Embosser. Functions include adding new fonts, moving an existing character to a different tine, and
removing a character from a tine.
At any time (for example, if you make a mistake that you discover later in testing), you can reset the
changes you made to the embosser wheel and return them to factory defaults by navigating to

To move a character from one embosser wheel tine to another, follow these steps:
1) Look at the numbers stamped on each embosser wheel tine to determine which tine the character was
(or is) originally on, and which tine you will move it to.
2) If the character is still on the old tine, uninstall it. Every character has a piece on the top embosser
wheel and a second piece on the bottom embosser wheel, so make sure to uninstall both, and to note
which piece belongs on the top and which piece belongs on the bottom.
3) Install both halves of the character on the new tine.
