Section 8: Inhibit Panel Usage
Using the Inhibit Panel (HDPII)
You can use the Inhibit Panel (I designation under YMCI, YMCKI, and YMCKIKI) to define
areas on the surface of the card, in order to prevent the transfer of film to the card surface.
Examples of where the I Panel has potential use are to ensure that signature panels, security
holograms or pre-printed graphics are not covered or obscured by print images or transfer
film.
• When Active: This feature is active when using YMCI, YMCKI, or YMCKIKI Ribbons.
• Application Usage: An application which supports the use of text based objects is used
to access and work with the Inhibit Panel.
Using Inhibit Panel (via the Fargo Workbench Printer
Utility)
You can use the Fargo Workbench Printer Utility to generate an Inhibit Panel Layout. (Note:
This utility allows the operator to add a rectangular area(s) that define which areas are to be
inhibited.)
• Inhibit Panel Placement: Each print job (generated from that individual client
workstation) will generate the instructions within the print job that place the corresponding
area(s) on the I-panel.
• Operating Systems: This method works on all applications generating print jobs to the
HDPii under all operating systems. (Note: This is regardless of whether the printer (being
used) is a shared instance from another workstation or an instance local to that particular
workstation.)
