OPTIONAL TACTILE IMPRESSION FEATURE
The new patent pending tactile impression feature is available as an option with the new CD800
CLM. There are two components to the tactile impression feature: the tactile impresser
(hardware) and the tactile impression die (supply).
If a tactile impression feature is desired, then the tactile impresser option should be ordered with
the CD800 CLM.
Customers will then have the option to purchase one of the generic tactile impression designs
that are available, or have the ability to create a unique, custom design specific for their ID card
program. The tactile impressions can contain text, logos, and outlines of images that will vary in
design and complexity.
The laminator will ship with a stock Datacard “D” alpha character. Then, upon receipt of the
generic or custom tactile impression
ordered, the channel partner will replace the stock “D”
tactile impression die prior to shipment to the customer.
Tactile Impression Positioning
The tactile impression can be placed in various positions on the cards, and can be impressed
multiple times on a single card.
There are some key considerations when designing a card with the tactile impression feature:

Position over the Mag Stripe and antenna chip should be avoided

Following design best practices outlined on the Custom Impresser Order form will be
critical. For example, orientation of the card layout and impresser die feature is critical in
order to ensure the proper portrait or landscape design layout is obtained.

The impression can be made in three distinct areas vertically in the card, but can be
moved across the card horizontally and impressed where desired.

There are specific regions for imprinting set in the print manager. Refer to user guide for
information on changing the settings.
