Uv Panel Option

A Uv Panel is used to print invisible images (text or graphics) that will glow in the visible spectrum when exposed to a Uv Light. The Uv Panel pop-up window allows you to manage and configure printing with a Uv Panel. This window is only available when using Uv ribbons (e.g., YMCUvK).

To access the Uv Panel pop-up window, select Start > Devices and Printers. Right click on the Zebra ZXP Series 8 Card Printer listing, and select Printing Preferences > Card Setup. Select Ribbon info ... > Front Uv ... or Back Uv ...

-Double pass prints the Uv image on a second transfer film panel and applies it to the card, over the first transferred image. This option increases the visibility of the Uv image but uses twice the transfer film.

-Grayscale prints the bitmap image as a grayscale image, which is composed of shades of gray, varying from black to white.

-Halftone prints the bitmap image as a halftone image, which simulates continuous tone imagery through the use of dots, varying either in size or in spacing.

Security ID automatically prints a unique text value in fixed locations on a card using the UV panel; see Page 92 for details.
