ContinuousmonochromeprintingwithDatacard‐certifiedribbon
usestheRibbonSaverfeature.WithRibbonSaver,theprinterbeginsusingribbonatalocation
thatcorrespondstotheleadingedgeofthecard.Theprintercontinuestospoolribbonforthe
lengthoftheimagebutnofarther.Theprinterleavesa
smallmarginbetweeneachcardtoavoid
imageoverlap.
Print Text in Monochrome
PrintingtextusingaKpanelcanmaketextlookcrisp,becauseitusesonlyonepanelforprinting.
Finete xtismorereadablewhenprintedwithmorepower.YousetthepowerfortheKpanel
usingPrinterManager.Referto“Print”onpage 44formoreinformation.
Thefontused
alsoaf fectslegibility.Theprinterreliablyprints
6‐pointArialfont.Bold,sans‐seriffontsaremorereadable
afterprintingthanseriffonts,orfontswiththinstrokes,as
shownatright.Intheexample,fontsthatprintwellare
showntowardthetopofthecard.
