Common Questions
What does "YMCKO" mean?
YMCKO refers to the ribbon's panels: Yellow, Magenta, Cyan (for creating full-color images), K (Black resin for sharp text and barcodes), and Overlay (clear protective layer). These combine to create full-color images and add a clear protective layer for card durability.
Is Specialist ID an authorized Magicard dealer?
Yes, Specialist ID is an authorized Magicard dealer with direct access to genuine Magicard ribbons and consumables. We stock fresh inventory, provide expert technical support, and maintain strong relationships with Magicard to ensure you receive authentic consumables with full manufacturer backing and warranty protection.
What does the "/2" or "/3" mean on Magicard ribbons?
This is a regional code. For instance, "/2" typically signifies the USA market, while "/3" often designates Europe/APAC regions. It's crucial that the ribbon's regional code matches your printer's region; otherwise, the printer may display an "invalid ribbon" error and refuse to print.
What printers is the MB200YMCKO ribbon compatible with?
It is exclusively compatible with the Magicard 600 series of ID card printers, including the Magicard 600 (Uno) and Magicard 600 Duo models, along with their Mag and Smart variants. It is NOT compatible with other Magicard printer series.
How many prints can I get from one MB200YMCKO ribbon?
Each ribbon provides 200 single-sided, full-color prints. This yield is ideal for organizations with moderate ID card issuance needs, reducing the frequency of ribbon changes.
Can this ribbon print on both sides of a card?
This YMCKO ribbon primarily produces full color on one side only (the front). While you can use it in a dual-sided printer like the 600 Duo, printing on both sides with the same ribbon would only yield 100 dual-sided cards. For color front and black back in a single pass, the Magicard MB250YMCKOK ribbon is more appropriate.
Does this ribbon come with a cleaning roller?
Yes, genuine Magicard MB200YMCKO ribbons typically include a cleaning roller that should be used each time you change the ribbon to keep your printer clean and maintain optimal print quality.
What is the shelf life of Magicard MB200YMCKO ribbons?
When stored correctly in original, sealed packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, Magicard dye-sublimation ribbons generally have a shelf life of up to one year for optimal performance.
Why should I use genuine Magicard ribbons?
Genuine Magicard ribbons are precisely engineered to work seamlessly with Magicard printers, ensuring optimal print quality, consistent color accuracy, maximum card durability, and preventing potential damage to your printer's delicate printhead, which could void your warranty. Using off-brand ribbons can lead to poor print results, ribbon jams, and costly repairs.
