Using the Overlay/Print Area (continued)

Step

Procedure

5

a. Print the card design.

b. Observe how the image is oriented on the card as it ejects from the Printer.

(Note: The location of a defined area is based on the card orientation as it
exits the Printer.)

c. Measure the defined area location based on the printed card. (Note: If

selecting the Rotate Front 180 Degrees option, the image will appear upside
down as it exits the Printer.)

d. Position the defined area opposite to the measurement of the onscreen card

design (which will appear right side up).

Use the Defined Area arrows to navigate back and forth from area to area.
(Note: The active area will always be highlighted with a dotted outline.)

a. Define another area by clicking on the Defined Area UP arrow.

Another .2" x .2"/5mm x 5mm area will appear in the lower left-hand

corner. (Note: This is the location in which all newly defined areas will
first appear.)

Up to 5 areas can be defined. However, additional areas cannot be

added until the most recently created area has been moved or sized.
(Note: For this reason, size and position each area as it is created.)

b. Define areas for both the front and back sides (as needed) if printing onto

both sides of the card.

c. Delete an area by using the Defined Area arrows to select the area and click

on the Delete button. (Note: If all areas are deleted, the Overlay/Print Area
options will automatically be deselected.)
