How to Calibrate your Evolis Primacy 1 Sensors

If your Primacy 1 card printer is not properly recognizing your cards, you need to calibrate the printer sensors.

Open the Evolis Print Center

Double-click on your printer and click Maintenance.

Enter the command Sa (case-sensitive S capital, lowercase a, no spaces) to adjust all the sensors in the same process. Ensure a color ribbon is inside the printer, and remove all the cards in the hopper. When ready, click Send.
