Printing Preferences
• Ribbon info and options:
- Ribbon type shows the type of ribbon (e.g., YMCKOK) installed in the printer. Note
that this is automatically detected from the ribbon.
- Ribbon combination allows you to select the combination of panels to be printed
on each side (e.g., YMCKO Front/YMCKO Back).
- Depending on the ribbon type installed, the Front and Back buttons let you set
options for:
• Black Panel Options on page 79
• Overlay Varnish Options on page 82
• UV Panel Options on page 83
• Laminator info and options:
These options apply only to printers with laminator. This section automatically shows the
presence of the laminator and laminate. You can select the Lamination mode via the
dropdown menu.
- Any: Any combination of laminate can be installed; i.e., top, bottom, or both (default).
- Top: Top laminate only must be installed.
- Bottom: Bottom laminate only must be installed.
- Top and bottom: Both top and bottom laminate must be installed.
- Pass through: Top and bottom laminate must be removed. This option allows a card to
pass through the laminator without having laminate applied.
Laminate only can be used to laminate pre-printed cards. This is a special-purpose
function that is enabled when the Lamination mode is set to Top, Bottom, or Top and
bottom and the Card destination is set to Output hopper. When selected, the card is passed
from the input hopper, through the printer without being printed, to the laminator for
lamination, then to the output hopper.
