A. Items in the Box

•1 ViewPlus InkConnect for Tiger Elite and Premier embossers (embosser not included)

•1 installation CD with user's manual in html

•2 ink cartridges

•1 serial cable

B. Unpacking

•Remove the InkConnect and all its accessories from its packaging.

•Inspect the unit and its packaging for any damage.

•Save the packing material and box. If any damage occurred during shipping, most shipping

companies require the box and the packing material in order to settle the insurance claim. The

packing material must also be used to ship the InkConnect for warranty maintenance service.

•Follow the ViewPlus InkConnect Setup Instructions included with your other materials.

C. Hardware Attachment

Before attaching the InkConnect, make sure that your Elite or Premier embosser is turned off.

To attach the InkConnect to the embosser, line up the hooks on the InkConnect with the pegs in the back

of the embosser. Insert the InkConnect hooks straight into the embosser and lower the InkConnect onto

the embosser pegs.

D. Software Installation

Please follow the easy steps that are part of your Setup Instructions to install your InkConnect driver. They

can also be found on your installation CD.

E. Ink Cartridge Installation

To install ink cartridges, rotate the back lid of the InkConnect up.

Shows the InkConnect with the back lid open

The ink cartridge carriage will be accessible through the opening. Unpack the two ink cartridges included

with the InkConnect. Carefully remove the plastic tape covering the ink cartridge nozzles without touching

the nozzles.

Shows the plastic tape covering the ink cartridge nozzles

Hold a cartridge with the nozzles pointing down (the label will be up). The flat plastic tab should be toward

you so that the writing on the label is upside down. Insert the cartridge into one of the ink cartridge

holders by placing the nozzle end in first and then pressing the side with the tab forward into the

InkConnect until the cartridge snaps into the holder.

Shows how to insert an ink cartridge

Install the second cartridge the same way, then close the lid.

The next time a print job is sent to the printer, a dialog will appear for each cartridge stating that a

cartridge change was detected. Choose the 'Yes' button on each cartridge's dialog to confirm that a new

cartridge was installed. This will ensure that the ink fill status of the cartridge is set at 100% when the

cartridge is full.

If an ink cartridge change dialog does not appear for one or both cartridges, or if you would like to reset

the ink fill status immediately without printing, the ink fill status can be set manually instead. To do this,

refer to the instructions for checking the ink fill status in Chapter III, Section C of this manual.

III. Set Defaults for the Printer

A. Windows Printer Defaults

After installation and setup are completed, changing your default settings to settings that will be used the

most often will save time in the future.

To set the default settings on your printer, enter the printer properties page for your Elite or Premier

embosser with InkConnect through Start>Printers and Faxes on Windows XP or Start>Control Panel>

Printers on Windows Vista, right click on your Elite or Premier and choose 'Printer Properties'.

To select the paper size you will most commonly use, click the 'Printing Preferences...' button on the

General tab. On the Layout tab of the Printing Preferences page, click the 'Advanced...' button. You will

now be able to select the paper size you will usually use from a drop down list. Please note that if you

later wish to use a paper size larger than what you have chosen on this page, you will need to adjust this

setting before printing.
