DTC1000Me/DTC1250e/DTC4250e Card Printer User Guide, PLT-01668, Rev 1.1
2.3
Installing the Print Ribbon Cartridge
FARGO Direct-to-Card Printers require highly specialized supplies to function properly.
The FARGO DTC1000Me, DTC1250e, and DTC4250e Card Printers use a one piece, disposable
ribbon cartridge system.
To maximize printer durability, reliability and printed card quality, you must use only FARGO-
certified supplies.
For this reason, your FARGO warranty is void, where not prohibited by law, if you use non-FARGO-
certified supplies.
Printer cleaning is recommended with each ribbon change to ensure quality printed cards.
Resin-only print ribbons consist of a continuous roll of a single resin color. No protective overlay
panel (O) is provided because resin images do not require the protection of an overlay.
