Split-Ribbon Color Printing
Split
‐
ribbon
color
printing
lets
you
use
less
ribbon
to
cards
in
color.
It
is
available
only
with
the
Card
Printer
Driver.
Refer
to
your
printer’s
Driver
Guide
for
information
about
how
to
specify
split
‐
ribbon
color
printing
and
the
split
ribbon
options
available.
Split
‐
ribbon
color
printing
uses
a
single
ribbon
panel
set
from
a
full
‐
color
ribbon
to
both
sides
of
a
card,
rather
than
two
or
three
panel
sets.
The
ribbon
can
be
a
full
‐
panel
or
short
‐
panel
color
ribbon.
The
order
in
which
the
color,
black,
and
topcoat
sections
of
the
panel
set
are
used
to
the
card
depends
on
the
type
of
ribbon
installed
in
the
printer
and
the
split
‐
ribbon
option
selected
on
the
printer’s
Printing
Preferences
window.
Manage Color
Color
management
is
the
process
of
making
color
on
the
PC
monitor
and
printed
card
appear
as
similar
as
possible.
For
color
management,
the
card
printer
uses
the
sRGB
color
standard
(standard
Red,
Green,
and
Blue
color
space).
You
specify
the
color
management
system
in
Printer
Manager.
Refer
to
“Print”
on
page 44
for
more
information.
Print Text in Color
The
printer
can
text
in
any
color.
Small
characters
are
likely
to
be
more
readable
if
they
are
a
sans
‐
serif
font
formatted
as
black
and
printed
with
the
black
(K)
panel.
Refer
to
Text
in
Monochrome”
on
page 19
.
The
printer
supports
6
‐
point
or
larger
text.
Print Graphics in Color
The
printer
produces
full
‐
color
images
from
most
types
of
graphics.
It
can
use
BMP,
JPEG,
TIFF,
and
PNG
file
formats
for
photos
and
logos.
Vector
graphics,
such
as
WMF
and
SVG
files,
have
components
such
as
shapes
with
lines
and
fills.
Components
defined
as
black
normally
with
the
K
panel.
Because
the
printer
uses
the
ribbon
panels
in
sequence
(YMC
first,
then
K),
black
images
can
over
color
graphics.
For
the
best
appearance
of
color
graphics,
or
to
prevent
backgrounds
that
are
black
from
printing
over
colored
images,
use
a
color
that
appears
black
but
is
not,
so
that
all
parts
of
an
image
with
the
YMC
panels.
For
example,
in
the
RGB
color
space,
0, 0,
0
is
black
(and
prints
with
the
K
panel),
but
0,
0,
5
is
not
black
(and
prints
with
the
YMC
panels).
Most
types
of
cards,
including
cards
with
magnetic
stripes
and
smart
cards,
can
be
printed
using
split
‐
ribbon
printing.
Options
for
color,
monochrome,
and
topcoat
are
available
when
you
use
split
‐
ribbon
printing.
