Lamination

IMPORTANT!

Select this button to display options for controlling the printerÕs lamination process. When the No Lamination option is selected, the printerÕs built-in laminator will not be used. When using the laminator, select from these options to choose the card side(s) you would like to laminate or to select the Lamination Type according to the overlaminate material you currently have installed. In addition, you can also select the Lamination Dwell Time or through-put speed of a card in seconds/inch as well as the Lamination Temperature. The default settings for the Lamination Dwell Time and Lamination Temperature should be accurate for most card stocks and overlaminate types. See Section 5 for more information on the printerÕs lamination process.

If you select the Film Lamination w/ Overlay option,

 

you must be using a ribbon which provides a clear

 

overlay panel. When used with this type of ribbon, the

 

printer will apply the clear overlay panel of the ribbon

 

over the film lamination layer of a printed card. This

 

process is required for maximizing card durability when

 

laminating with the thermal transfer film material. The

 

ribbon types which do not provide an overlay panel or

 

support overlay printing are Monochrome Resin and 5

 

Color, Resin Black. Avoid using these types of ribbons

 

in conjunction with the thermal transfer film material.

 

Selecting the printer driver’s standard Overlay option

 

forces the printer to automatically place the ribbon’s

 

clear overlay panel onto whichever side or sides of the

 

card you are printing. The Film Lamination w/

 

Overlay option overrides the standard Overlay option

 

for the card’s laminated side only, forcing the printer to

 

place the ribbon’s clear overlay on top of the film

39

overlaminate rather than beneath it.
