Zebra ZXP Series 8 and 9 Series 800012-445 YMCK Ribbon
This genuine Zebra ribbon is designed to work specifically with the ZXP Series 8 and 9 retransfer printers.
It is a full color ribbon that promises to give near photo quality images on your cards. This ribbon contains Yellow, Magenta, Cyan, and Black dye the same way a color paper printer would. This gives you great versatility in the colors that can be created. This ribbon can give you the same colors as a color inkjet printer. This ribbon can print approximately 625 images. The design of this ribbon makes it ideal for single sided printing.
This ribbon utilizes retransfer printing technology.
These ribbons first print on a thin film that then is thermally bonded to the card.
There are some benefits to retansfer printing. It allows for high quality prints of images on the cards as well eliminating the while border that is left on the edges of the car with normal direct to card printers. These printers allow for printing across a range of cards, including non-PVC cards and smart cards. The film makes it easy to print even if the surface is uneven. This printing can even help protect against fraud! The cards are covered with a film so any tampering becomes visibly evident. Retransfer printing provides a number of new options in ID card printing.
Zebra 800012-445 YMCK ribbons consist of yellow (Y), magenta (M) and
cyan (C) panels for printing a full spectrum of colors by combining the
colors using varying degrees of heat. The K panel is a black resin
panel, typically used for printing text and barcodes.
Zebra 800012-445 YMCK ribbons are used for printing a combination of full-color images and one-color text or barcodes.
Zebra card printers require specialized Zebra ribbon to function
properly. To maximize printed card quality and printer durability, use
only genuine Zebra ribbons.
