Field Description
Note: The Dual Sided options will be grayed out if:
Print Both Sides: This option is used for cards printed on both sides. (A program with the ability
to send 2 card images within the same document is required.)
Dual Sided
Print Back Side Only: Select this option to print only onto the backside of preprinted cards that
must have their magnetic stripe or smart card chip encoded.
Note: Load the cards into the hopper in the usual way.
Rotate Front 180 Degrees: Rotates the image on the card front 180 degrees when printed.
Rotate Back 180 Degrees: Rotates the image on the card back 180 degrees when printed.
Disable Printing: No print data will be sent to the printer when magnetic encoding is sent. Note:
This option allows the use of laminate without printing.
Dual Pass: This refers to fluorescing dye being applied to a separate panel of the film.
Note: First, the YMC ink is applied to a panel of 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 default Dual Pass option is used if the fluorescent image is used
Options where other dye is used or if the Invert F-panel Image option is selected.
For additional information See Chapter 8: Fluorescent Panel Usage.
Invert F-panel Image: 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 Image 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.
For additional information See Chapter 8: Fluorescent Panel Usage.

Printer Driver Operations
• No Flipper is found.
• The Print Both Sides option is unchecked.
• Side 1 will be printed on the front side of the card.
• Side 2 will be printed on the backside of the card.
Split 1 Set of Ribbon Panels: This option becomes active when Print Both Sides is checked.
Select this option to automatically print full-color on the front of a card and resin black on
the back of a card (using YMCKK type print ribbons).
Use this option to provide the most economical means of printing a dual-sided card since a
single set of ribbon panels will be split to print both the front and backside.
Print Back Image on Front of Card: Select this option:
- If printing the first page of a two page card layout on the backside of the card
OR
- If printing the resin black on the chip-side of the smart card.
The second page of the card layout will be printed on the front side of the card.
• When this option is selected, the print both sides option is automatically disabled.
• When attempting to print a two page card layout, the first page of the card will print on the
backside of the card.
• The second page of the layout will then be printed on the back of a second card.
