Cards
This section describes specifications and quality guidelines for card stock to use with
the ImageCard IV printer. It also describes the environmental specifications for
storage of card stock.
Card specifications
For best results with the ImageCard IV printer, use high-quality card stock that meets
the specifications and recommendations described in this section.
Card size
Use CR-80 size cards with the following nominal dimensions:
Actual card thickness can vary by up to ten percent from the sizes listed. Smart
card chips can be raised slightly from the printing surface.
If you use an overlay or topcoat station, you must use cards that are at least 0.030
inch or 0.76 mm thick. If you apply 1.0 mil or 1.1 mil laminate to cards, you must
use composite cards with a PVC surface, not 100% PVC cards.
Card bow must be less than the thickness of the card.

polyester core and PVC surface are recommended.

Cards with a smart card chip on the top of the card. Depending on the module
installed in the printer, contact-type, contactless, or both types of smart card chips
