Frequently Asked Questions

The Datacard Sigma DS2 supports both color and monochrome ribbon options. Color ribbons include prefilled cassettes in YMCKT, YMCKT-KT, KTT, ST-KT, and GT-KT configurations, as well as refill kits with various panel combinations. Monochrome ribbons are available in black, white, blue, red, green, scratch-off, silver matte, gold matte, silver metallic, and gold metallic finishes. Contact us today to find the right ribbon configuration for your specific ID card printing needs.

Image yield varies by ribbon type and configuration. Prefilled YMCKT cassettes produce up to 500 images, while KTT ribbons yield 750 images. Refill kits offer higher yields—for example, KT refill kits produce 1,000 images, and monochrome refill ribbons yield 1,500 images. Visit barcodesinc.com to compare specific ribbon options and their expected output for your printing volume.

Yes, the Sigma DS2 offers optional smart card and magnetic stripe encoding capabilities. Smart card support includes both contact encoding (ISO 7816 T=0/T=1, Class A at 5V, 3V, and 1.8V) and contactless encoding (ISO 14443 A/B, ISO 15693, MIFARE, MIFARE DESFire EV1/EV2, HID Prox, iClass, and Felica). Magnetic stripe encoding supports ISO 7811 three-track (high and low coercivity) and JIS Type II single-track options. Our team can help you select the right ribbon and encoding configuration for your application.

The Sigma DS2 includes optional WiFi connectivity supporting 802.11g/n on dual-band 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies. Authentication modes include None and WPA2 Personal, allowing secure wireless integration into your network. Contact us today to discuss connectivity requirements for your ID card printing environment.

The Datacard Sigma DS2 is compatible with Windows 10 (32- and 64-bit), Windows 8.1 (32- and 64-bit), Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016, and Windows Server 2012 R2 (64-bit). This broad OS support ensures integration with most enterprise IT environments. Visit barcodesinc.com or contact our team to verify compatibility with your specific system configuration.

Prefilled ribbon cassettes come ready to install with predetermined image yields (typically 350–750 images depending on the color configuration), making them convenient for quick replacements. Refill kits offer higher total yields—up to 1,500 images for monochrome and 650 images for certain color configurations—and are more cost-effective for high-volume printing operations. We offer both options to match your budget and printing demands. Contact us today to determine which option is best for your workflow.
