Datacard 150i and 275/280P/295 Card Personalization
Systems: Guide for Use with ID Works Software
ID Works Standard and Enterprise Version 5 Online Reference Library
Photo Fields
Because the 150i System does not support graphics, photo fields will
be ignored.
If your 275/280P/295 System includes the UltraGrafix option, photo
fields will behave as described in the ID Works Administrator’s Guide
with the following exceptions:
• The field must be on the front side of the card design.
• The Topcoat setting is ignored. See “Topcoat” on page 5.
• Datacard recommends that any border used be black.
• Ghosted photos are not supported.
• Datacard recommends that the Configure K-Panel Printing utility
in the ID Works Administrator application not be used with the
Card Personalization System. The Datacard 275/280P/295 Plug-
in automatically optimizes graphics for printing with a one-color
ribbon.
Magnetic Stripe Fields
If your 275/280P/295 System includes a magnetic stripe option (all
150i Systems have magnetic stripe capability), ID Works magnetic
stripe fields will behave as described in the ID Works Administrator’s
Guide with the following exception:
• The field should be on the back side of the card design.
See “Designing an ID Works Project to Encode Magnetic Stripes” on
page 12 for complete information.
Smart Card Fields
If your Card Personalization System includes a smart card module
and a smart card encoder plug-in is installed on your computer, smart
card fields will behave as described in the ID Works Administrator’s
Guide with the following exception:
• The field must be on the front side of the card design.
See the documentation for the installed encoder plug-in for more
information.
