Print Both Sides
Select this option to automatically print on both the front and back side of a card.
This option can be selected in conjunction with any application program which
supports a multiple page document. In other words, your program must be able to
send down two or more separate pages to be printed within the same document.
For example, if you would like to print a full color ID format on the front of your
card and monochrome text or bar codes on the back, you would simply create the
full color front side of the card on page 1 of your document and the monochrome
back side on page 2. The printer driver will always place all odd numbered pages
on the front side of the card and all even numbered pages on the back side.
Print Edge-to-Edge
Select this option to print full-bleed images all the way out to the edge of a card.
When this option is not selected, the printer will automatically place a non-
printable margin of about .10” (2.54mm) around the entire perimeter of a card. If
you have selected this option and you are still getting a slight non-printable border
along one or two edges of the card, select the Calibrate button to fine-tune the
position of your printed image. Please note that it is not possible to print edge-to-
edge on 10 mil (.010”/.254mm) cards
