Students can only have One RFID at a time. The moment a second RFID Card is printed out the previous RFID Card will automatically be deactivated.
All RFID Schools use 5000 printers. In order to begin printing RFID Cards you must have the ”CardName” Selected as one of the options in the drop-down menu.
*GCS OneCard Primary 22/23 Color Code – RFID
This is for Elementary and Middle Schools. Some specialty schools have primary schooling.
*GCS OneCard Secondary 22/23 Color Code – RFID
This is for High Schools, Middle Colleges, and some specialty schools that have upper secondary schooling. This Card Name has the suicide hot line number on the back.
Once this is selected, you may use your regular printing process to print cards. The system will not print if the wrong type of cards is in the printer and wrong “Card Name” is selected.

Problems & Solutions
I cannot add Students to the print queue that is already there
You must clear out the print queue before readding that student for reprint. The software does not warn you about it so keep in mind if you need to reprint, simply remove the student from the print queue and add them.
There are Printers I do not recognize and I did not tell the software to print.
When selecting your printer for printing please only pick the school you are assigned to, because you may be sending print requests to a location that is not being monitored which means you will lose the cards you printed. In the image above the 9th step, you will see two students going to an Access411 printer. In this example Access 411 is remote printing the cards in the queue. They have full access to do this at any time. Common printer names by them are Access41, Dev DEPOT, and DEPOT 1-6.
