Frequently Asked Questions

The Zebra ZC300 is designed to work exclusively with Zebra genuine ribbons, which are available in multiple configurations including YMCKO (full color), half YMCKO, YMCKOK (dual-sided color), monochrome options in black, white, red, blue, gold, and silver. Each ribbon cartridge includes a cleaning roller, and Zebra's intelligent technology automatically detects and authenticates the ribbon for optimal performance.

Ribbon yield varies by type: full YMCKO ribbons print 200 cards, half YMCKO yields 400 cards, YMCKOK (dual-sided) produces 250 cards, and monochrome ribbons range from 1,500 to 2,000 cards depending on color. These image counts reflect the cartridge capacity when used with standard CR-80 media. Contact us today for help selecting the right ribbon yield for your volume requirements.

Standard CR-80 ISO 7810 ID-1 format cards are recommended for optimal print quality.

For monochrome applications, throughput reaches 1,000 cards per hour single-sided and 500 cards per hour dual-sided. These speeds are based on batch printing with USB connectivity and may vary depending on your computer configuration.
