Printer Components: Print Ribbons
The Card Printer utilizes both dye-sublimation and/or resin thermal transfer methods to print
images directly onto blank cards. Since the dye-sublimation and the resin thermal transfer
print methods each provide their own unique benefits, Print Ribbons are available in dye-
sublimation-only and combination dye-sublimation/resin versions.
To make it easier to remember which Print Ribbons are which, a letter code has been
developed to indicate the type of ribbon Panels found on each ribbon.
This letter code is as follows:
= Dye-Sublimation Yellow Panel
= Dye-Sublimation Magenta Panel
= Dye-Sublimation Cyan Panel
= Resin Black Panel
= Heat Seal Panel
