7 How do I know if I have an i Series ribbon?
The i Series designation is part of the ribbon description. i Series
TrueColours' ribbons are packaged in blue boxes and are clearly identified on
ribbon packaging and labelling. In addition, all i Series ribbons part numbers are
different from non-i Series ribbon part numbers.
8 What is the difference between i Series and non-i Series ribbons?
i Series multi-panel ribbons have RFID technology that enables the printer and
driver features of the Intelligent Printing System, High Colour (HC) ribbon
formulation, and are wider for improved edge to edge printing. The i Series
ribbons are supplied with a replacement cleaning roller included in the box.
9 Will i Series ribbons work on non-i series printers?
Yes. An i Series ribbon will work with a non i Series printer, but when
installed on a non i Series printer, the ribbon will not be enabled through
RFID technology. This means the resulting colour imaging will not be as
optimal as it would be if it were used with an i Series printer.
10 Will non-i Series ribbons work on i Series printers?
- No. i Series printers require use of i Series ribbon for full colour printing or
printing with multi-panel ribbons.
- Non-i Series monochrome, single panel ribbons function on i Series printers.
11 Where can I buy i series ribbons?
Javelin i Series ribbons are available only from authorised Javelin card printer
dealers.
12 Do I Series ribbons require any special care or handling?
No. The storage and handling requirements are the same as non i Series ribbons.
13 Who do I contact if I have any other questions?
Contact your Javelin dealer for any questions related to Javelin card printers.
