Hiti CS-200e Ribbons

These are the printer ribbons for the HiTi CS-200e ID card printer. Each one covers a different job. The YMCKO full-colour ribbon prints 400 images per roll. The monochrome ribbons run 1000 images each and come in black, white, gold or silver.

Black monochrome is the cheapest HiTi CS-200e ribbon here, both per roll and per card. It is the everyday option for text, barcodes and simple layouts. White monochrome prints on dark or coloured card stock where a standard black print would disappear. Gold and silver give a metallic finish for a more premium look, at around four times the cost of the black ribbon for the same 1000 images.

The YMCKO ribbon carries yellow, magenta, cyan, a black panel and a clear overlay. That is what full-colour photo ID printing needs on standard CR80 cards at 85.6 x 54mm. Reach for it when staff photos, logos and coloured designs have to look right. Monochrome ribbons suit high-volume printing where cost per card matters, such as visitor passes and basic membership cards.

On the listings the rolls are named HiTi Monochrome Black Ribbon, White Ribbon, Gold Ribbon and Silver Ribbon, each at 1000 images, alongside the HiTi YMCKO Full-colour Ribbon at 400 images. The HiTi CS-200e ID Card Printer sits in this category as well, for anyone buying the machine and its first ribbons at the same time.
