Technical Overview
This ribbon cartridge combines dye-sublimation and thermal transfer print technologies. Dye-sublimation produces vibrant, photo-quality color images that are permanently bonded to the card surface, while thermal transfer creates sharp monochrome elements like text and barcodes.
The black print color delivers high-contrast results essential for legible identification cards. The 500-page yield provides predictable consumable costs and reduces frequency of ribbon changes in operational settings.

FAQ
What printers is the Fargo 45113 ribbon cartridge compatible with?
The Fargo 45113 ribbon cartridge is specifically designed for Fargo DTC1000 and DTC4000 ID card printers. These are dedicated card printing systems used for producing identification cards, access badges, and similar credentials. Using this genuine cartridge ensures optimal performance and print quality with these compatible Fargo printer models.
What is the difference between dye-sublimation and thermal transfer in this ribbon?
This cartridge utilizes both technologies: dye-sublimation produces vibrant, full-color images by transferring dye into the card surface, creating photo-quality results that are instantly dry. Thermal transfer applies monochrome elements like text, barcodes, and black graphics using heat to transfer ribbon pigment onto the card. The combination allows for comprehensive card designs with both color imagery and crisp textual information.
How many cards can I print with one Fargo 45113 ribbon cartridge?
The Fargo 45113 ribbon cartridge has a typical print yield of 500 pages. This represents approximately 500 standard identification cards under normal printing conditions, though actual yield may vary slightly based on card design complexity and printer settings. The 500-page capacity makes this cartridge suitable for medium-volume card production environments.
What color does the Fargo 45113 ribbon cartridge print?
This ribbon cartridge prints in black color only. The black pigment produces high-contrast text, barcodes, and graphic elements essential for legible identification cards. For full-color card production, this black ribbon would typically be used alongside color ribbon cartridges in compatible Fargo printers that support multi-color printing workflows.
