Step-by-step Procedure

The following procedure illustrates the steps for requesting customized artwork printing.

1. Please name the card you need (e.g. ACOS3, ACOS5, Mifare cards, SLE5542, SLE5528) or the chip you want. In addition, please submit the artwork and enclose a proof with printing instructions. All revisions are handled in this phase.
   
   • Please inform ACS if:
     
     
     • It is in silk-screen printing for special colors, such as gold, silver, or other metallic color.

       • Some applications may require a magnetic stripe on your card. Please inform ACS which type of track and the cohesive encoding (HI-CO or LO-CO) you prefer.
         
         
       • Some applications may require signatory panel or barcode. Please specify the location and sufficient information.
         
         
       • If you need a sequential serial number, please provide ACS the range of numbers.
