Adjusting the Transfer Dwell Time and Temperature

Use the Image Transfer option to control of the Transfer Dwell Time and Transfer Temperature.

These settings control the speed and temperature at which printed images are transferred from the HDP Film to the card. These settings may vary depending on the card type.

The Printer Driver automatically optimizes these settings according to the selection made in the Card Type option.

Changes made to the Dwell Time and temperature settings are saved for the selected Card Type option (upon exiting the Printer Driver setup in the Printer’s Control Panel).
