The Evolis RT4F010EAA is a high-definition colour ribbon designed specifically for the Evolis Avansia retransfer printer. Using a four-panel YMCK configuration (Yellow, Magenta, Cyan, and Black), this ribbon produces photo-quality images, vibrant graphics, and crisp black text for professional card identification.

As part of the retransfer printing process, this ribbon prints your design onto a clear retransfer film which is then bonded to the card. This results in "over-the-edge" coverage, ensuring no white borders remain around the perimeter of the card. It is the gold standard for high-security IDs and cards with uneven surfaces, such as contact or contactless smart cards.

Printer Compatibility

This ribbon is a genuine Evolis High Trust® consumable, exclusively compatible with:

• Evolis Avansia

• Evolis Avansia Lamination

Key Features & Benefits

• Exceptional Print Resolution: Optimised for the Avansia’s 600 DPI printhead, delivering sharp fine lines and smooth gradients that exceed standard direct-to-card quality.

• Over-the-Edge Finish: Guarantees 100% card coverage, eliminating the white border often seen with traditional ID card printers.

• Superior Durability: The retransfer process provides an additional layer of protection, making the cards more resistant to daily wear, fading, and abrasion.

• Smart Card Compatible: Because the ribbon prints onto a film rather than the card itself, it can safely print over embedded chips and internal antennas without risking printhead damage.

• High-Yield Efficiency: Capable of producing 500 full-colour prints, making it ideal for large-scale corporate or government card programmes.

Important Usage Requirement

Please note that the RT4F010EAA is a retransfer ribbon and must be used in conjunction with Evolis Retransfer Film. It cannot print directly onto a PVC card. Using genuine Evolis High Trust supplies ensures your Avansia printer maintains its high performance and protects your manufacturer’s warranty.

Typical Applications

• National ID & Voter Cards: Where high-definition security and durability are paramount.

• Corporate Access Badges: Ideal for smart cards used in secure entry systems.

• Transit Passes: Durable cards designed to withstand frequent handling and scanning.

• University IDs: Professional, long-lasting identification for students and faculty.
