Return to printer solutions | Printer drivers, firmware & software
Written By john.fieldsend 22nd May 2023
This is the latest recommended driver for the Rio, Tango, Rio 2 and Tango 2 printer models.
Release Date: 15/11/2007

Compatible with 32 bit Windows operating systems:

  • Windows 95
  • Windows 98
  • Windows ME
  • Windows 2000
  • Windows Server 2003
  • Windows XP
  • Windows Vista

32 BIT ONLY

Alternatively…

For the older Rio 2 and Tango 2 printers (not 2e) it is possible to use the latest unified driver
– though you will first need to carefully update the product ID as described in the attachment below.

The latest unified driver is an alternative driver for the Rio 2 and Tango 2 printer models.
This driver should ONLY be used if you are unable to use this recommended Rio 2 / Tango 2 driver (V6.02) due to software compatibility issues.

Before the latest unified driver can be installed, you need to change your printer’s Product ID (PID) from 1000 to 1800.
This can the be done using the ID Card Printer Support Utility. Full instructions for changing the PID can be found in the r2t2_pid_change_up.pdf below.

For Avalon E printers (with an ‘E’ in the serial number) you need Printer Driver 1.7.2

What customers say about our support...

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

We ended up not getting the piece repaired due to the cost but support was great about getting back to me which I appreciate.

Printer model: Prima 4

Fixed and working well, would have been easier if could have paid by credit card

Printer model: Prima Laminator

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!

Printer model: Pronto

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.
