Defaults: The Printer Driver software has default Transfer Temperature and Dwell Time settings
that deliver the best transfer for these card types. These defaults automatically configure based
on the card type, Ribbon type and whether printing single- or dual-sided.
Card Type Selection: Before printing, if using these standard Fargo card types, ensure
selecting the appropriate card type from the Card tab of the Printer Driver.
Proper Settings: Not all card types are accommodated by these default settings. In some
cases, experimentation is required to find the proper settings.
IMPORTANT: If you select the wrong option, the wrong Dwell Time and temperature may be
used during the image transfer process resulting in poor adhesion of the InTM Film or card
warping.
