DTC4500e Card Printer User Guide, PLT-01669, 1.0
1.4.1.2 Printer Components: Blank Cards
Type Description
Card Size The Card Printer accepts standard CR-79 and CR-80 size cards.
Card Surface
Suitable cards must have a polished PVC surface free of fingerprints, dust or any
other types of embedded contaminants. In addition, cards must have a completely
smooth, level surface in order for the printer to achieve consistent color coverage.
Certain types of proximity cards have an uneven surface that inhibit consistent
color transfer.
• Certain types of smart card chips are raised slightly above the cards surface,
which also results in poor color transfer.
