How it works

The Evolis R5F008AAA ribbon installs easily into Primacy series card printers using a color-coded cartridge system. It uses dye-sublimation for the YMCK panels to create vivid color images and thermal transfer for the black panel, ideal for crisp barcodes or text. The final overlay panel adds a clear protective layer to each printed card. The ribbon is automatically recognized by the printer, and the included cleaning roller ensures clean prints by removing particles before printing begins.
