Zusammenfassung:There is described a method of aligning active print elements of a printhead to a card. The method comprises: a) receiving a print job from a card processing application; b) receiving an offset value for the printhead; c) offsetting a set of active print elements of the printhead designated by the print job by the offset value to designate a modified set of active print elements; and d) processing the print job using the modified set of active print elements. The offsetting step c) may include ripping the print job with a printer driver to generate a print file that has been modified in accordance with the offset value, whereby the print file designates the modified set of active print elements.
