Using the Dual Pass and Invert F-Panel Image options
See Using the YMCFK Ribbon in the Workbench procedure in the Fargo Workbench Printer
Utility section.
• Dual Pass option: This refers to the fact that the fluorescing dye can be applied to a
separate panel of HDP Film. (Note: First, the YMC ink is applied to a panel of HDP Film;
then, the F and possibly K are applied to a separate panel. If this is not done, the
fluorescent ink tends to mix with the YMC colors and lose its fluorescent qualities; it also
tends to become visible.)
It is recommended that the user use the default “Dual Pass” option if the fluorescent
image is used in places where other dye is used or if the “Invert F panel” option is
selected.
• Invert F-Panel option: This refers to the ability to cause light or white areas of the
image to fluoresce and dark colors to remain dark on the printed card when exposed to a
UV light. (Note: This was requested because the fluorescent dye color is bright when
black light is applied to it. By default, the dark areas of the image will fluoresce on the
card and the lighter or white areas will have no dye applied.)
The User can select the Invert F-Panel option to cause the black in the design to show
as dark on the card. This option is recommended if the user is printing a photo.
