Datacard SD360 Ribbons

These are genuine Datacard printer ribbons for the SD360 and the wider SD range of card printers, the consumable that puts the actual image onto your ID cards. Which SD360 ribbon you need comes down to what you print and how many cards you want before the roll runs out.

Monochrome ribbons print a single colour and cover the highest yields here. The Monochrome Black ribbon (532000-053) runs to 1500 images and is the lowest cost per card here, which is why it suits staff badges, visitor passes and anything text-heavy where colour adds nothing. Monochrome White (532000-004) prints at the same 1500-image yield and is the one for printing onto dark or coloured card stock.

A YMCKT colour ribbon carries the four print panels plus a clear topcoat that seals the card, so reach for YMCKT when you want photos, logos and colour coding. YMCKT comes in 250-image rolls (534700-001-R010 and 534000-002) and 500-image rolls (534700-004-R010 and 534000-003), so you can size the roll to your print run. The difference with the YMCKT-KT ribbons (534700-005-R010 and 534000-006) is a second black and a second topcoat panel, which is what lets you print on both sides of the card. The KT Black ribbon (534000-005) gives you 1000 images of black with topcoat.

Where two part numbers cover the same panels at the same yield, the right one depends on your printer. Send us the model and serial and we will confirm the part before you order, along with current stock and lead times.
