The Rewritable Cards options allow you to make fine tuning adjustments to the erase and print functions when printing on Rewritable card stock.
Warning: This option requires a special Card Stock. The card stock must be approved Rewritable Card Stock. This feature cannot be used on plain PVC, adhesive back or Prox cards.
Note: Typical Rewritable surfaces are a matte finish, unlike the glossy PVC surfaces. Make sure to insert the card with the matte finished side facing up.
Note: Dye film must be removed before attempting to print on rewritable cards.
