Barcodes not reading or printing out in resin black

Return to printer solutions | Problems with print quality

Written By john.fieldsend 11th Apr 2023

Some badging applications send barcodes as a bitmap image and not a true type font.

To workaround this follow the steps below.

Shut down your badging application.

Go to the start menu
Devices and printers
Right click the printer icon and select printing preferences
Image tab > advanced > change the color correction to Gamma 1
Then go to the card front tab
click the black options button
uncheck pictures use YMC only.

Click OK all the way out.

Reopen your badging application and print.
