YMCK Ribbon Performance
One of the crucial aspects to continuously check in order to prevent card printer device failures is the consumables. The stripes on the YMCK ribbon indicate the remaining amount of the ribbon. When the ribbon is running low, the device will automatically alert the user.
For colored printing of PVC cards, it is essential to use ribbons that contain the four main colors of the printing process.
All the colors within our visual spectrum can be produced using these four colors found in the ribbons:
- Yellow (Y)
- Magenta (M)
- Cyan or turquoise (C)
- Black (K)
This ribbon, consisting of the four colors yellow, red, blue, and black, has the capability to print various colorful graphic designs on one side of the card.
If you intend to print a fully colored photo on one side of a PVC card, you will need YMCKPO, YMCK and YMCKUV ribbons. It’s worth noting that all colors can be achieved by combining yellow, red, and blue.
?How to choose a ribbon
If you are printing full-color images on one side of a plastic card, you will need a YMC, YMCK or YMCKO ribbon.
All colors can be created from yellow, magenta, and cyan panels. A YMC ribbon will create a composite black by mixing together yellow, magenta and cyan.
Black won’t be very sharp or dark.
The ‘K’ is a black resin panel. We highly recommend a YMCK ribbon if you’re printing black text. If you’re printing barcodes, a YMCK ribbon is required for
the black to be crisp enough for a barcode scanner.
If you are printing full color on both sides of the card, you would buy a YMC, YMCK or YMCKO ribbon and either manually feed the card through a second time or use the flipper if you purchased a dual-sided printer. A color ribbon will yield half as many cards if you print on both sides.
