tomakesurethatcardscontinuetohavethequalityyourequire.
Substantialchangesthatcanaffectbarcodesinclude:
• Changingfrombatchprocessingtoissuingsinglecards(orchangingfrom
issuingsinglecardstobatchprocessing).CheckfordifferencesinKprinting
andfull‐colorprinting.
• Purchasinganewbrandofcardstock,whichcanchangethecolorofsome
images.

• Movingthecardprintertoanewlocation,whereenvironmentalchanges
suchasamountoflightorrelativehumiditycanaffectimages,supplies,or
printeroperation.
Ifyouchangethedesignofyourcards,orifyoustartproducinganadditionalcard
design,reviewsetuptaskstomakesurethateachdesignprintsasrequired.Test
