Printer Components: Blank Cards
Caution: Never run cards with a contaminated, dull, or uneven surface through the
Printer. Printing onto such cards will ultimately lead to poor print quality and will greatly
reduce the life of the Printhead. Always store the card stock in its original packaging or in a
clean, dust-free container. Do not print onto cards that have been dropped or soiled.
Printhead damage caused by contaminated or poor quality cards will automatically void the
Printhead's factory warranty.

Design
The Printer will print onto any card with a clean, level, and polished PVC
surface.
Although the Printer is equipped with card cleaning Rollers, it is very
important to always print onto cards specifically designed for direct-to-card
dye-sublimation printing.
Card
Surface
Suitable cards must have a polished PVC surface free of fingerprints, dust, or
any other types of embedded contaminants. In addition, cards must have a
completely smooth, level surface in order for the Printer to achieve consistent
color coverage.
Certain types of Proximity cards have an uneven surface that will inhibit
consistent color transfer.
Certain types of smart card chips are raised slightly above the cards surface
which also results in poor color transfer.
