Using the K Panel Resin tab
Use this tab to adjust the Print All Black with K Panel (options), and the Defined Areas. Use
this tab to control where the resin black (K) panel of a full-color Ribbon is printed.
• Resin black text is desirable due to its sharp, saturated color, and resin black barcodes
are required to ensure readability when scanned by an infrared barcode reader. (Note:
The Printer driver will automatically print all TrueType black text and TrueType barcodes
only with the resin black (K) panel of the print Ribbon by default.)
• If printing black text or barcodes that are not TrueType fonts or black graphics, select one
of the three options listed under Print All Black with K Panel. See the Selecting the Full
Card with the K Panel Resin tab procedure on the next page. (Note: The Printer driver
will print areas of the image where it finds black coloring with the print Ribbon's resin
black (K) panel, as specified by each of the following options.)
