XPS Card Printer Driver User’s Guide 101
Printers can print UV elements on both the front and the back of the card. A two-sided card
design with UV on both the front and back uses two panel sets of the ribbon.
If the card design contains the UV color, but UV ribbon is not detected in the printer, UV
elements are treated as normal color elements.
Do not print an entire card using the UV panel.
Print UV Design Elements
The following will print with the UV panel:
Text set to the UV color.
Vector graphics set to the UV color. Vector graphics have components such as lines and fills
that the driver processes into a shape.
Raster images (or bitmaps), such as photographs, with the pixel color set to the UV color or
white.
You cannot print color photographs with the UV panel directly. To print an image using
the UV panel, the application must create a two-color image with white as one color and
the UV color as the other color.
UV raster images always print over other card elements even if they are placed behind
the element in the card design.
