MAGICARD
Magicard ribbons are used in conjunction with Magicard ID card printers to produce high-quality printed cards. These ribbons come in various types, each suited for different needs:
1. YMCKO Ribbon: This is a common ribbon type used for full-color printing. It stands for Yellow, Magenta, Cyan, Black (for text), and Overlay. This ribbon allows for vibrant color prints with a protective overlay to enhance durability.
2. YMCKOK Ribbon: Similar to the YMCKO ribbon but includes an additional black panel for dual-sided printing or more detailed black text and images on the back of the card.
3. K (Black) Ribbon: This is a monochrome ribbon used for printing black text or images. It’s useful for single-color prints, like ID cards that only need black text.
4. Holographic Overlay Ribbon: This ribbon includes a holographic layer that adds a security feature to the cards. It’s often used for cards that need to be tamper-evident or have additional security elements.
5. Re-Transfer Ribbons: For printers that use re-transfer technology, the ribbons are different and designed for transferring high-quality images onto a card’s surface.
Choosing the right ribbon depends on the specific needs of your card printing project. Each ribbon type offers different benefits in terms of color quality, durability, and security features. If you have a particular Magicard printer model, you should check which ribbons are compatible with it.
