Which types of ID card encoding are possible with my Datacard printer?

All Datacard printers are capable of encoding, provided the encoders were specified as an add-on when they were originally bought.

The SD260, SD360, SD460, CR805 and CR815 have the capability to encode magnetic stripe cards (IS0 7811 three-track, HiCo and LoCo) as well as smart cards such as MIFARE contactless cards. They also support custom data formats if required.

Can I upgrade my Datacard printer with an encoder?

It is generally possible to upgrade your Datacard printer after purchase, meaning that you can add encoding at a later date if required. However, the SD range comes in two body styles: short and long. Only the longer machines can be upgraded due to their larger size.

How do I resolve Error Codes 109, 110, 118 and 119 on my Datacard printer?

These are the most common error messages for Datacard machines and are caused by ribbon issues. Printer ribbons have an RFID tag, which if removed, will cause one of the above errors to show. The ribbon will be unusable.

This also applies if it's been placed back in again. The ribbon's cap has a sensor inside that communicates with the printer. This cap should never been removed.

Total war: rome ii - wrath of sparta campaign pack crack. Total War Rome II Emperor Edition is now with 66% discount at Steam, that's 18.69€ and 12.80€ at Instant Gaming (I buy a lot there and never had a problem, is not like G2A where there are a ton of sellers). You can pick only one DLC out of three, but Wrath of Sparta Campaign is 14.99€, so might be worth getting Rome II now. Wrath of Sparta introduces an entirely new, epic campaign expansion for Total War: ROME II focusing exclusively on the Hellenic world, plunging players into the turbulent events of the iconic Peloponnesian Wars. The year is 432 BC, and unrest grows throughout the Greek City-States.

My error messages on the LCD display don't clear even after resolving the issue

Hold down the ‘User' button to clear the message. Now try to resume printing or run a test print. The issue should have been resolved.

What is the standard warranty period on my Datacard printer?

Datacard warranties vary in length depending on the printer in question, but the SD range come with a 36-month warranty as standard, with a 30-month warranty for the print head. Other models may vary between 12 and 36 months.

Datacard warranty covers the cost of parts and labour, although labour costs are only covered if the printer is shipped directly back to Datacard for repair. You'll find more warranty information with the original documentation that came with your Datacard printer.
