recognizes are the 125 image yield YMCKT and ymcKT ribbons and the 500 image
yield black HQ ribbon.
Q: Will the ribbons developed for use in the SP25 Plus card printer operate in other
SP Plus series printers?
A: The YMCKT, ymcKT, and black HQ ribbon developed for use in the SP25 Plus card
printer are not recognized by the SP35 Plus, SP55 Plus, or SP75 Plus card printer and
will not allow the printer to produce cards.
Q: Does the SP25 Plus card printer operate with Datacard® monochrome ribbons
as well as monochrome ribbons provided by third party-suppliers (just as the
other SP Plus series printers do)?
A: The only monochrome ribbon that functions within the SP25 Plus card printer is the
Datacard black HQ ribbon (item number 552954-604). Other Datacard monochrome
ribbons and third-party monochrome ribbons are not recognized by the SP25 Plus card
printer and will not allow the printer to produce cards.
Q: What is the difference between a “supply kit” and a “ribbon kit?”
A:
Supply kits available for use with the SP25 Plus card printer are only available with full
color ribbons and include 125 blank cards and cleaning supplies within the kit. Ribbon
kits available for use in the SP25 Plus card printer (as well as other SP Plus series
printers) include one roll of ribbon and cleaning supplies within the kit.
Q: Can I punch holes in rewritable cards for use with lower cost badge holders?
A: Just as Datacard Group recommends that holes not be punched in full color PVC
cards, we also recommend against punching rewritable cards. When a hole is punched
in a card, it often leaves behind rough “burrs” that can come in contact with the
printhead, leading to an expensive service call and/or replacement. If users need to
display their rewritable cards, Datacard Group recommends using premier supplies
accessories that do not require punched holes in order to be displayed or held.
Q: How many times can a rewritable card be erased and rewritten?
A: When used as instructed, the rewritable cards Datacard Group offers can be erased
and rewritten up to 500 times per card. Card life may be extended provided that cards
are not exposed to UV light and the SP25 Plus card printer write power is adjusted so
“image ghosting” is not evident.
Q: What type of information can be written on a rewritable card?
A: Rewritable cards are written in a blue monochromatic dye and can contain text,
photos, and other images. Datacard Group does not recommend that bar codes be
printed, as most readers will have difficulty reading the bar code produced on a
rewritable card.
Q: What is the Ribbon Saver feature and how does it work?
A: The Ribbon Saver feature is only available in the SP series card printers and is unique
to the Datacard
ribbons used in those printers.
For monochrome print ribbon applications: Instead of advancing one card length of
ribbon for every printed card, the SP25 Plus card printer advances just past the
actual portion of the ribbon that has just been used. Depending on the card
design, this feature can potentially triple the standard yield of a monochrome print
ribbon!
