Datacard Colour Ribbon YMCKTK – 300

Description

The Datacard Colour Ribbon YMCKTK – 300 is a full-colour ribbon with an extra black resin panel (KTK) and a clear topcoat (T), designed for use in specific Datacard ID card printers. The “300” in the name indicates that this ribbon is typically capable of producing approximately 300 single-sided card prints.  

Here’s a breakdown of what YMCKTK signifies:

• Y: Yellow panel  
• M: Magenta panel
• C: Cyan panel  
• K: Black resin panel (used for printing sharp black text and barcodes)  
• T: Topcoat panel (a clear overlay that protects the printed card from wear and fading)  
• K: Second black resin panel (this allows for dual-sided printing in black without using the colour panels)

Key features and benefits of a YMCKTK ribbon:

• Full-colour printing: Produces vibrant, photo-quality images with smooth gradients.  
• Dual-sided black printing: The extra black resin panel enables you to print black text or barcodes on the back of the card without wasting the colour panels.  
• Protective topcoat: Extends the life of your ID cards by providing resistance to scratches, smudges, and UV fading.
• Sharp black text and barcodes: The resin black panel ensures crisp and easily readable monochrome elements.  
• Yield: Approximately 300 single-sided prints. The actual yield might vary slightly depending on the print coverage.
