The printer driver or applicat
ion on the PC pre
pares the data for the printer to
use. The type of data and the type of ribbon installed determine how the XPS
Card Printer Driver renders it.
Monochrome Panels in Full-Color Ribbon
Full-color print ribbon includes a black
panel. The black panel transfers to the card
differently than the YMC panels, Text and
bar codes are often printed with the black
panel. It also prints any monochrome or one-
bit-per-pixel graphics using the K panel.
Monochrome Ribbon
Monochrome ribbon produces single color cards. Monochrome
ribbon can be:
• Alternating black and topcoat panels (KT or KTT ribbon)
The printer applies Black and two topcoat panels on
the
same side of the card.
• Continuous black (K ribbon)
• A continuous color, such as green or silver (also K
ribbon)
Continuous monochrome printing wi
th certified ribbon
us
es the Ribbon Saver feature. The printer begins using
ribbon at a location that corresponds to the leading edge of
the card. The printer continues to spool ribbon for the length of the image but no
farther. (The printer leaves a small margin between each card to avoid image
overlap.)
