You must restore the driver back to factory defaults:
  1. Close down your badging software.
  2. Navigate to devices and printers.
  3. Right click on the Magicard printer and select:
    • > printing preferences
    • > save tab
    • > click ‘Restore Factory Defaults’ button
  4. Reopen the badging software and try a print.
If you receive the same error go to your printer settings or printer properties within the badging software and go to the Save tab and click ‘restore factory defaults’ again.

Additional notes:

ADMIN account will be needed to reset the factory defaults. Or at least a User Account with permissions higher than just ‘Print’.
