Color printing on top of
a black background
does not print on the
card.
The black panel of the
ribbon is printing over
the color panels.
The printer uses the print ribbon panels in
sequence; the Y panel prints first, then M,
and so on. The black panel of the print
ribbon is used last and prints over the
color panels. For best results, change the
100% black background to a color near
black, so that it prints using the YMC
(color) panels of the print ribbon. Refer to
“Elements of Card Design” in the printer’s
Installation and Administrator’s Guide for
more information about color printing.
