Operating Environment
Use the following guidelines when operating the printer:
Using the printer in areas that are cooler than the recommended temperatures can cause
retransfer errors. Using the printer in areas that are warmer than the recommended
temperatures can cause cards to warp and retransfer film errors.
Storage Environment
If you are storing the printer for an extended length of time, remove the ink ribbon and retransfer
film, and use the following storage guidelines:
Operating temperature 50° to 95°F (15° to 35°C)
Operating humidity 20% to 80% non-condensing
Storage temperature 5° to 141°F (–15° to 60°C)
Storage humidity 10% to 90% non-condensing

CR825 and CE875 Instant Issuance System Installation and Administrator’s Guide 7
Secure Printing Requirements
Secure printing consists of encrypting print commands and card data and transmitting the
information securely from the PC to the printer. Printers are shipped with both non-secure (DPCL
and DPCL2) and secure (DPCL2Secure) communication protocols enabled. You can enable or
disable communication protocols using Printer Manager. Refer to “Behavior” on page 56 for more
information about how to specify the printer security settings.
The printer uses TLS for encryption. The default setting restricts connections to the printer to
TLS 1.2 to provide maximum security. However, you can change the minimum TLS version, if
necessary to allow TLS1.1. To change the TLS encryption version requires WebService access to
Printer Manager. Contact your system administrator or your service provider.
If your card production site requires secure printing, use the following:
 An Entrust Datacard CR825 instant issuance system with secure printing (DPCL2Secure)
enabled and both DPCL and DPCL2 disabled.
 An Entrust Datacard CE875 instant issuance system with secure printing (DPCL2Secure)
enabled and both DPCL and DPCL2 disabled.
 The Printer Manager Communications > MinTLSVersion value set to TLS1_2. This restricts
secure communication to TLS 1.2-compatible encryption.
 The Printer Manager Behavior > Plugin setting is set to Disabled. Refer to “Behavior” on
page 76.
 A PC that meets the PC requirements listed in “PC Requirements” on page 1.
 An Ethernet connection that meets the requirements listed in “Ethernet Requirements” on
page 2.
 A current browser.
 The current version of printer firmware. New firmware releases add patches for known
security vulnerabilities.
MinTLSVersion is a WebService access-level setting. Contact your system
administrator or service provider to change the setting, if necessary.

8 Printer Installation
If you use Entrust Adaptive Issuance™ Remote Monitoring and Management Software to manage
your printers, you can disable the printer’s native configuration interface, Printer Manager, by
changing the Behavior > WebServerSecure setting to Disabled. This prevents unauthorized
access to the printer and provides a higher level of security. Refer to “Behavior” on page 76.
Install the Printer
The following sections describe the setup process when you first install the printer.
The printer ships with a standard 125-card input hopper. If you ordered the printer with an
optional multi-hopper, the printer is manufactured without an input hopper. This allows you to
install the multi-hopper with six input hoppers, each with a 125-card capacity.
An optional 125-card output hopper also is available and can be installed without tools on single-
hopper CR825 systems.
The following sections show the printer with a single hopper. Printer option-specific information
is noted, where necessary.
 Unpack the Printer on page 9
