ID Card Ribbon & Supplies FAQs
What does YMCKO mean on a card printer ribbon?
YMCKO stands for the ribbon's panels: Yellow, Magenta and Cyan for full-colour images, K for sharp black text and barcodes, and O for a clear Overlay that protects the card from wear and fading.
Which ribbon fits my ID card printer?
Ribbons are model-specific. An Evolis Primacy 2 ribbon won't fit a Zenius 2, and Sigma DS ribbons only fit Entrust Sigma printers. Match the ribbon to your exact printer model, or call 1-800-263-4258 and we'll confirm it.
How many cards does one ribbon print?
It depends on the ribbon type. Colour YMCKO ribbons print fewer cards per roll than monochrome ribbons. Check each ribbon's card yield before ordering, or ask us for a recommendation based on your monthly card volume.
How often should I clean my card printer?
Clean it whenever you change ribbons or when the printer prompts you. Regular cleaning prevents streaks, protects the printhead and is often required to keep the printhead warranty valid.
What's the difference between HiCo and LoCo magnetic stripe cards?
HiCo (high coercivity) stripes resist accidental erasure from magnets and are used for access control, gift and loyalty cards. LoCo stripes are cheaper but erase more easily.
