Why choose Plus-Ribbon for your ID Card Printing?
| Many professionals from around the world suggest that leading your product promotion and selling style with price as the key USP is dangerous to the brand and its shelf life! Eagle can in part see the merit in this consideration but in the case of Plus-Ribbon, a high quality alternative can | |

only lead by the exceptional savings available. However, maybe we should appraise all the benefits to balance the proposition… § Brilliant colour photos and true-to-life flesh tones § Incredibly sharp monochrome resin barcodes and text § Major savings (ooops, there we go again!)
Simple appraisal of card printer users confirm that many do not adjust their card printer’s exhaustive choices to obtain optimum print results, so the suggestions that Plus-Ribbon does not measure up is in practice rendered inaccurate!
For those that do take the time to make necessary adjustments each time they… § Insert a new ribbon § Move the printer to a different location § Change their plastic card supplier or type of card § Or merely print different designs… will learn that Plus-Ribbon may not be exactly the same when compared to ribbons supplied by the manufacturer, but a tolerance of 1 or 2% certainly offsets against the savings enjoyed.
Stuart Parker comments… “When a new product or an updated version of an existing product is released, the ribbon formula may also be changed. In cases where these ribbons are also manufactured to be backwards compatible with previous models and therefore replace any existing ribbon stocks, then this can result in a change in colours and tones on the older model printers, often without the user being notified or aware of such media supply changes.”
Card Printer makers highlight within their recently revised warranty terms that they reserve the right to refute a warranty claim if alternative media is used. This can also include the plastic cards or cleaning cards you use and naturally is a very grey area because plastic cards are the critical factor when determining printer performance. Cards with uneven surfaces and burs, whilst packed in contaminated packaging (dirt, dust, ink) are actually a common and widespread issue.
ID Ribbons yield a major percentage of the profit enjoyed by the card printer makers (hence high prices) so it comes as no surprise that adverse information concerning the use of compatible ID ribbons is being released and talked about so widely. However, we estimate that some 70% of the worldwide card printer installed base is out of warranty which also explains why Plus-Ribbon is growing stronger by the day. Saving a lot of money and enjoying high quality helps the buyer’s decision making process to be a simple one!
Furthermore, Eagle Technologies actually overcomes the warranty concern by certifying that warranty rejection on the part of the printer maker is not an issue. Simply forward your printer to an Eagle repair centre and you will be up and running again in no time and at no cost! Like any insurance programme, Eagle Technologies will handle the reclaim process and ensure an uninterrupted Card Printer experience for the operator and organisation.
