✅ EVOLIS HIGH TRUST® RETRANSFER
Evolis RT4F010AAA YMCK Retransfer Ribbon for Avansia
Premium retransfer technology for the most demanding ID applications—superior durability meets edge-to-edge printing perfection. Engineered exclusively for the Evolis Avansia, delivering 500 prints with exceptional quality, enhanced card protection, and unmatched professional results for high-security credentials.
Experience the pinnacle of ID card printing with 500 full-color retransfer prints per ribbon—advanced YMCK technology that prints onto clear film before transferring to cards, creating a protective barrier that makes your credentials virtually indestructible while delivering true edge-to-edge coverage that direct-to-card simply can't match.
Why Retransfer Changes Everything
- Cards that actually last — The retransfer film creates a protective cocoon around your printed image, so cards survive years of daily badge swipes, pocket abuse, and washing machine accidents without fading or cracking
- True edge-to-edge printing — Finally print completely to the card edges without white borders, and yes, it even prints beautifully over smart chips and uneven surfaces where direct-to-card fails miserably
- Photo quality that impresses — 600 DPI resolution with retransfer technology delivers images so crisp your employee photos look like professional headshots, making your organization look more credible
- Zero print head contact with cards — Since the ribbon prints to film first, your expensive print head never touches abrasive card surfaces, dramatically extending printer life and reducing costly repairs
- Perfect for high-security applications — When you're printing government IDs, healthcare badges, or financial credentials, the enhanced durability and tamper-resistance of retransfer technology is exactly what auditors want to see
- Handles 500 cards efficiently — Larger ribbon capacity means fewer interruptions during big print runs, so you can knock out entire batches without babysitting the printer every few dozen cards
Avansia Compatibility & Requirements
- Evolis Avansia Only — This is a specialized retransfer ribbon designed exclusively for the Evolis Avansia printer - it won't work in direct-to-card printers and attempting to use it elsewhere will damage equipment
- Requires retransfer film — You absolutely need clear retransfer film (like Evolis RTCL009NAA) sold separately - the ribbon prints onto this film, then the film transfers to your cards, so both components are essential
- High Trust® authentication — Genuine Evolis ribbon with built-in authentication chips that ensure your Avansia recognizes it as authentic, preventing "unknown ribbon" errors and maintaining warranty coverage
- Professional installation — Drop-in ribbon cartridge design makes installation foolproof, but you'll want to follow the film loading process carefully since retransfer requires both ribbon and film to be properly aligned
- Not compatible with other Evolis printers — This won't work in Zenius, Primacy, or other Evolis models - retransfer ribbons are specifically engineered for retransfer printers only
- Premium cost for premium results — Yes, retransfer consumables cost more than direct-to-card, but when you factor in the dramatically longer card life and professional appearance, the per-card value is actually better
How Retransfer Technology Actually Works
1. YMCK Printing Yellow, Magenta, Cyan, and Black resin panels print the complete image onto clear retransfer film - not directly onto the card surface
2. Film Positioning The printed film is precisely positioned over the card, covering the entire surface including edges and any embedded chips or uneven areas
3. Heat & Pressure Transfer Controlled heat and pressure permanently bond the film to the card, transferring the image while the film becomes the protective top layer
4. Edge-to-Edge Coverage The film completely encapsulates the card surface, providing true edge-to-edge printing and protection that's impossible with direct-to-card methods
5. Durable Protection The retransfer film acts as a permanent protective layer, preventing image damage from scratches, chemicals, UV exposure, and daily wear
