adjust the speed and memory requirements of the print process. A “0” in this field instructs IDentifier for Windows to use the printer’s default resolution when rendering images. If your printer is able to print at extremely high resolution (1200 dpi, for instance), setting the “Alternate Resolution” to 300 or less will improve print speed and performance. Any value other than “0” overrides the printer’s default value. 3) Several more options are available at the bottom of the Printer Options dialog. a. Checking the USE BATCH PRINTING OPTION enables batch printing and makes three new radio buttons immediately appear in the Printer Options window under the heading BATCH QUEUE MODE. These radio buttons refer to queuing options: i) the ALWAYS ASK option will present a user-input prompt each time you click a PRINT button asking if you want to print a badge now or queue it for later; ii)the AUTO PRINT option is used primarily when printing exclusively to a paper printer. If USE SHEET FORMATTING is selected (see “b.” below), cards automatically bypass the selected PVC card printer and are sent to the sheet printer; printing does not begin, however, until enough cards have been queued to fill a sheet. If USE SHEET FORMATTING is not selected, the badge will be printed on the PVC card printer immediately. iii)the ALWAYS QUEUE option will queue all badge print requests until you decide to print the contents of the queue. If you do not select USE BATCH PRINTING, an individual’s badge will be printed immediately after you click a PRINT button. If you check USE BATCH P RINTING, IDentifier for Windows will create a subdirectory named “C:\ITC\Queue” on the local workstation. If you wish to change the directory for where the queue will be stored, use the BROWSE button to enter an alternate path in the DIRECTORY field at the bottom of this window. You may change these options at any time by returning to this window. b. 54 Check USE SHEET FORMATTING when you want to bypass the card printer and print your badges on preprinted badge forms or create and print rosters. With this option checked, IDentifier for Windows sends the badge print request directly to the sheet printer you selected in Sheet Printer Selection (see above). This option may be checked and unchecked as often as your needs require. When you check this option, a new LAYOUT SHEET button appears. The LAYOUT SHEET button disappears when you deselect this option. (See “Layout Sheet dialog” on page 56) IDentifier for Windows version 4
