Does the ribbon offer color printing?

Troubleshooting

Ribbon not recognized by printer

Ensure the ribbon is correctly seated in the DURACARD ID 300 printer. Check that the RFID encoding is not obstructed and that the printer is powered on.

Print quality is poor (faded or smudged)

Verify that the ribbon is not nearing its print limit (500 cards). Ensure the print head of the DURACARD ID 300 printer is clean according to the manufacturer's instructions. Store the ribbon properly when not in use.

Cards are not waterproof or durable

Confirm that the transparent protective coating is being applied correctly by the DURACARD ID 300 printer. This feature is integral to the ribbon's function and requires the printer to operate as intended.

Ribbon is difficult to install or remove

Ensure you are following the correct installation procedure for the DURACARD ID 300 printer. Do not force the ribbon; it should click into place easily. Consult the printer's manual if needed.
