Smart ribbons in the truest sense
When a Datacard
®
ribbon is loaded into the
SP35 or SP55 card printer, the printer driver
automatically adjusts printer settings to match
the ribbon type, helping to ensure the best
possible image quality on the cards. The printer
and supplies continue working together to track
print ribbon consumption and notify you of an
upcoming ribbon replacement.
Our SP Series card printers feature Datacard
®
proprietary ribbons designed specifically for the
SP35 and SP55 card printers. When the printer
recognizes that a Datacard
®
ribbon is installed,
all enhanced product features are enabled and
successful card printing can begin. The printer
will only print color images when Datacard
proprietary color ribbons are installed. Datacard
is your exclusive source for proprietary ribbons
for the SP35 and SP55 card printers.
Remarkable image quality
Datacard
®
color panel ribbons for the SP35 and
SP55 card printers tap into our exclusive
Advanced Imaging Technology
™
to give you
extremely crisp, vivid photos, graphics and text
on full- or one-color cards. On-screen image
controls enable smooth, uniform solid
backgrounds, improved color matching with
cameras and clearly defined edges and fine text.
We also offer a range of high-quality Datacard
monochrome ribbons for reliable single-color
card printing.
Maximum ribbon yields
help reduce costs
Datacard ribbons for the SP35 and SP55 card
printers offer high-yield rolls. Each ribbon
is longer, allowing for more printed images
per roll.
A lower yield YMCKT ribbon is also
available for customers with lower-volume
printing needs.
The SP35 and SP55 card printers also feature
our exclusive ribbon saver feature. When
printing with Datacard monochrome ribbons,
the printer advances the ribbon just enough to
print an image, rather than the traditional full
card width advancement. This feature can
potentially double and even triple the standard
yield of your Datacard monochrome ribbons!
Datacard color panel ribbons also take
advantage of the ribbon saver feature. The SP35
and SP55 card printers include smart features
that automatically identify the color panel
ribbon without the need to advance the ribbon,
saving one complete panel set during each
printer initialization.
Installation is a snap
If you think operating an SP35 or SP55 card
printer is easy, try replacing the supplies. Print
ribbons and cleaning sleeves snap right into
place with no tools or additional adjustments
required. Printheads practically align
themselves. Simply open the printer’s cover,
swap old for new and resume printing.
Convenient supply kits
Datacard Group understands that producing
quality card images takes a combination of
quality ribbons and a well-maintained, quality
printer. One of the simplest ways to help keep
your printer maintained properly is to perform
regular cleaning operations.
For the SP35 and SP55 card printers, we have
simplified this process by including an
isopropanol cleaning card and adhesive
cleaning sleeve in every box of ribbons, all
ordered using a single item number. Now, when
it is time to replace your ribbon, you will
always have cleaning supplies available to help
maintain optimum performance. Additional
cleaning supplies and accessories can also be
ordered separately, when more frequent
cleaning intervals are required.
