Inhibit Area Location: The location of the inhibit area within the print job is the upper left

hand corner, where the text object is placed upon the drawing within the application.

Note: The inhibit file bitmap must contain one bit per pixel (for example, monochrome).
Print Size: If the inhibit bitmap is larger than the page print size, it is trimmed to fit it. The

normal print size for a CR-80 card is 2.204 inches by 3.452 inches.

•

With that print size, the maximum size of the inhibit bitmap area would be 661 pixels by

1035 pixels.

•

If the inhibit bitmap is smaller than the page print size, it will still be used by the driver

and be referenced to the upper left hand corner of the ~i text object.

Bitmap Black Areas: The black areas of the bitmap are the areas that will correspond to

where the inhibit material will prevent the transfer of dyes on to the card.
Generate the inhibit bmp file with any bitmap editor. The following procedure explains how

this is done with Microsoft Paint.
