Reviewing the upgraded 81754 PVC Cards
The upgraded 81754 PVC cards are designed for a sharper card image quality and for
reduced debris and defects on Fargo Card Printers. Carefully read these detailed notes and
instructions before applying this information to your Fargo printer or printers.
Technician Note 1: The new card lot number starts at Lot # 2010104 with date codes
that started on 04/01/2003. The photo (below) shows a lot number that starts after Lot #
2010104, indicating a new card lot number. The card lot number and date can be read
on the bar code label attached to the shrink-wrapped stack of 100 cards, as shown
below. All new Fargo printers with a serial number (S/N) starting with A320 will have
factory settings for these new 81754 PVC cards.
Technician Note 2: Do not use the new 81754 PVC card stock with Fargo laminating
printers/encoders. This same guideline is used for the existing 81754 PVC card stock.
Fargo recommends using the UltraCard III stock with the Fargo laminating
printers/encoders.
