•
Position of printing on the card
You can change where the printing is positioned on the card. When you select
“Edge to edge” as the Print Margin value, you should set the position of printing on
the card for best appearance and smooth operation. (Print Margin is set in the
Properties, Document Default Properties, or Printing Preferences dialog box.) You
can also change the position of printing to address card quality concerns. Use the
Printhead tab of Advanced Setup to change the position of printing on the card.
•
Particle detection sensitivity
If your printer has an optional particle detector, you can change the particle
detection sensitivity if your card stock has a feature, such as a signature panel,
that is detected as a particle. You can also return to a higher level of sensitivity if
you have previously lowered it. As you lower the sensitivity, you increase the
chance of not detecting potentially damaging particles. Use the Printhead tab of
Advanced Setup to change the particle detection sensitivity.
•
Type of laminate and topcoat material
If you change the type of overlay or topcoat material you use, you should select
the new material type using the Laminator–Material tab of the Printer Toolbox. The
ImageCard IV printer is factory-set for the type of material you specified when
ordering the printer. Use these factory settings unless you change the type of
material. When you select a material type, default values for the material are sent
to the printer and current values are erased.
•
Laminate and topcoat settings
You can change the temperature, pressure, and speed used to apply laminate or
topcoat to cards. You can also change the position of the laminate on the card.
The combination of your cardstock and the supply material might require values
different from the defaults. Use the Laminator–Advanced tab of Advanced Setup
to change laminate and topcoat settings.
Your service representative can guide you in making settings that will meet your
specific needs.
Operational settings should be changed only by someone familiar with the
operation of the printer and with Windows. Allow enough time to perform all steps
of the procedures to achieve the card quality desired.
If this information does not result in the print quality that you want, contact your
service representative for assistance.
Process for changing settings
Help contains several procedures which help you make specific changes to settings.
All of the procedures use the following basic steps.
