Set Automatic or Manual Printing on the CR1000

Print activation determines how the CR1000 triggers a stamp - automatically when a card reaches the sensor or manually by pressing the push bar. Automatic printing is ideal for fast, hands-free operation, while manual printing gives you more control over placement. You can also choose semi-automatic or combination modes for flexibility.
