1. Install labels into printer
- Unpack printer and plug into power.
- Load labels into the printer. They go face down.
- Press ^ on printer to feed a single label.
- Note: if you cannot reliably feed a single label, eVisitor will probably not be able to print.
2. Configure Windows
- Plug the USB cord into the computer and load the driver. As of Jan 2022, the driver is ver 7.1.1.
- Set paper size: Printing preferences, Advanced, Page Size: “SLP-SRL Shipping (2.13×4.00)”
- Print a test page.
- Note: If you can’t reliably print a Windows test page, eVisitor will probably not be able to print.
- NOTE: The printer often over saturates the barcode in default mode. To address this choose one of the following setting in Printing Preferences, Advanced:
- Print Quality = Fine OR
- Print Density = 80% – 70% or so.
3. Configure your visitor management software
- Login to your visitor management software.
- Go to settings, devices, label printer and point to the “Smart Label Printer”.
- Set Badge Print Res to “300”.
- Select “Force Pre-processing”.
- Test by printing several badges.
It’s easy and free to activate this feature. Simply call us and ask for “Red Flag, No Badge” to be turned on. Once it’s on, the above pop-up will come up when a red flagged visitor comes back. No badge will print and the attendant will need to follow the facility’s policy for handling red flagged visitors.
