Chapter 9: Inhibit Panel Usage - HID FARGO HDP5000 User Manual

Inhibit Panel Usage
With Workbench, an area can be configure that will not have ink or film applied to, when using the
YMCKI ribbon (the I in the ribbon stands for inhibit). In addition, writing only to a specific area on the
card, such as an existing signature area, can be completed.
These ribbons contain a yellow (Y), magenta (M), cyan (C), resin black (K), and Inhibit (I) panels to
create a full color over-the-edge printing identification card.
There are two (2) methods used to accomplish the creation of a custom fluorescent image when using
the YMCFK ribbon.
•
The first method uses the utility to create a static image that will be applied automatically to
each card sent to the printer.
•
The second method allows the creation of the inhibit panel image directly from the badge
application software.
