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’.

What customers say about our support...

Support were very helpful but sadly we didn't manage to get the 2010 machine working again and I had to buy a new machine.

Very speedy, helpful and was able to speak immediately with a technician on the phone

Printer model: Magicard 300

Alan M was a fab help! Quick to help and even called me back when we were cut off due to a power cut on my end! Called him back the following week and he remembered me and the problem i was having. Thanks Alan!!

It was strange what my problem was but support was quick to isolate it with a few pics sent to them. Very happy with the support.

Printer model: Magicard 600

Thank you so much! The ID printer is working great and we really appreciate the honesty of your technicians! We could have easily been billed for repairs that weren't done, as our printer is no longer under warranty, but you didn\'t charge us at all. The technician superstar told me that it was a simple loose wire, which he reattached, and they shipped it back at no charge. Thank you!
