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
below. (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.)
