CARDS
Card Material
Not all white plastic Cards are the same. For best image quality always use high quality grade PVC Cards.
Pure PVC Card stock or laminated PVC/Polyester Cards are available. The latter are more durable and better suited to
heavy use and heat lamination when required. For access control and “Smart Card” applications, your Dealer should
provide the appropriate type for “Direct to Card” printing. For good consistent results, keep to a single variety of good
quality Cards, such as those available from your Magicard Dealer.

To obtain good quality prints the Cards must be :
Glossy
white.
Free from dirt or grease.
Free from surface contamination, e.g. finger marks.
Free from burrs at the edge of the Card.
Free
from
pits or bumps in the surface.
Printable Area of the Card
The Pronto Printer offers high quality edge to edge (full bleed) printing.
Thus the surface of the Card may be printed “edge to edge”.
Die cut PVC Cards typically have an edge roll off (bevel) which can result in a fine white line around the edge of full bleed
printed Cards. When setting up your Card design using your graphics software on your PC, you should use a maximum
page size of 1016 pixels (3.375”/85.6mm) x 642 pixels (2.125”/53.98mm).
