Upgrade Kits FAQs
1. Q: Do I need any tools or mechanical knowledge?
A: Not at all. You just need to load the upgrade dye film roll or the blue tube and the printer does everything
else automatically.
2. Q: How does it work?
A: All of our ID Card Printers have a card flipper mechanism. The RFID tag in the special upgrade dye film roll
tells the printer to permanently change itself into a double-sided printer.
3. Q: Can I use this upgrade on other ID Card Printers?
A: No, once an upgrade is used in a printer it cannot be used to upgrade other machines.
4. Q: Do I have to keep this special upgrade dye film or spool for future use?
A: Just use the film from this special duplex upgrade kit to print cards as normal.
Keep the empty blue upgrade spool from either upgrade for future warranty confirmation.
5. Q: What kind of dye film should I to print Duplex?
A: The upgrade dye film will work the same as the standard **250YMCKOK dye film which is used to print
color on the front and resin black on the rear of a card. You can also use the **300YMCKO to print color on
both sides of the card if you prefer. You will need to adjust your Driver settings depending on your
requirements.
