EasyBadge 1.0 Printer Ribbons

The EasyBadge 1.0 card printer runs either a black monochrome printer ribbon (part 659353) or a YMCFKO six-panel UV colour ribbon (part 659339). Which one you need depends on whether you print in black only or in full colour, plus how many cards you plan to run before changing the ribbon.

The EasyBadge 1.0 black monochrome ribbon, part 659353, yields around 1,200 images per roll, which suits high-volume printing of single-colour cards carrying staff numbers, names and barcodes. It is the sensible choice when you are printing plain cards in bulk and want the lowest cost per card.

The EasyBadge 1.0 YMCFKO ribbon, part 659339, is the full-colour option and gives roughly 200 cards per roll. It carries yellow, magenta and cyan for the image, black (K) for sharp text and barcodes, plus an overlay (O) and a fluorescing UV panel that adds a hidden security mark. It fits photo ID, visitor passes and any card where you want a UV security feature built in during printing.

Both ribbons are matched to the EasyBadge 1.0, so the main decision is colour versus volume. If you are unsure which ribbon your printer takes or how many rolls a job will need, the Plastic ID team can confirm compatibility and work out the right quantity with you before you order.
