Definition
A standard method of signaling for a bi-directional parallel
interface on personal computers. To ensure proper Printer
communications and image output, Fargo recommends a parallel
interface cable that complies with this specification.
A collection of pictures or graphical elements that compose the
visual features on a card. Also refers to the digital representation.
The Inhibit or I designation under YMCI, YMCKI, and YMCKIKI
indicates the ability to prevent the transfer of film to the card
surface. Users can select these Ribbon types to prevent film from
transferring over security features, signature panel or other areas
of special interest on the card surface.
Any data or material being transferred to the Printer.
The area of the Printer that stores the blank cards, ready to print.
A thin flexible material coated with a resin material into which the
dye is transferred from the Ribbon by the Printhead. The film is
then transferred to the card surface by the Transfer or Hot Roller.
From the Greek, iso, meaning same. Used to represent data from
the International Organization for Standardization.
The standard for encoding to a Magnetic Stripe provided by the
Japan Standards Association. The single track is as wide as ISO
tracks 1 and 2 combined and in the same approximate location as
those tracks but on the front of the card. The Coercivity level is
600 Oe.
An area of a multicolored Ribbon (e.g., YMCK) that contains black
resin for transfer to the card surface. Also used in reference to the
application of preference to items printed on the card - those
using the black panel in lieu of a process (YMC) black.
The application of a film or resinous substance, fused by heat and
pressure, to the surface of a card.
