Product Features
Technical Overview
This ribbon utilizes both dye sublimation and thermal transfer print technologies, providing versatility for different card materials and print requirements. Dye sublimation is ideal for printing onto polyester-based cards, offering excellent color penetration and durability, while thermal transfer works well on PVC and other plastic card stocks, ensuring crisp edges and high-resolution images.
The YMCKO color configuration includes Yellow, Magenta, Cyan, Black, and Overlay (YMCKO), enabling full-color printing with a protective overlay layer. The overlay enhances card longevity by adding a scratch-resistant coating that protects the printed image from wear and environmental factors.
