For consistent high-quality output from your Zebra card printer, use Zebra’s TrueColours® print ribbons. TrueColours ribbons deliver vibrant color photos and “true-to-life” flesh tones, as well as sharp monochrome bar codes and text. Prolong card life with Zebra’s patented overlay (“O panel”) in the ribbons, which protects your card against dye migration and abrasions. TrueColours ribbons are also designed to help extend the life your Zebra card printer with a unique silicone-based coating that minimizes printhead debris. Ribbons without this coating allow particulate buildup on the printhead, which may decrease the life of this critical printer part.
