Digital Label Press 3 User’s Manual
A. INTRODUCTION
As you may already know from reading Section 1, this press is able to produce a
variety of output by using a variety of different print ribbons. Each of these
ribbons is unique, and each requires its own compatible print media. To make it
easy for you to remember which ribbons are to be used with which print media
and which type of output each set of print supplies will produce, Press print
supplies are divided into two separate categories. These categories include #200-
Series supplies and #300-Series supplies. 
This section describes the ribbon and print media in each of these categories and
explains how to install these print supplies into your Press. 
B. ABOUT RIBBONS
#200-Series Ribbon - Dye-Sublimation Print Method
The #200-Series Ribbon utilizes what is called a dye-sublimation print method and
is distinguished by its GRAY cores. This ribbon is designed to print onto special
dye-receptive polyester label stock and produces durable labels and decals that are
color-accurate when used with the optional color matching software. 
This ribbon is in a convenient paneled format.  The panels include the three
process colors of yellow, magenta, and cyan as well as a clear overlay panel, which
makes printed images more durable. This means you can automatically print
continuous-tone process color images with no dithering. Due to its precise color
matching ability and its true photo-quality output, this ribbon is the most popular
of the Digital Label Press's print ribbons.
The #200-Series ribbon provides exactly 50 sheets worth of output and has a
maximum printable area of 11.71" x 17.3" (297 x 439mm). This ribbon can be used
only in conjunction with the special #200-Series dye-receptive polyester label stock
which is distinguished by a GRAY-and-WHITE package cover sheet (see Part E of
this section for more print media information).
