Evolis R2013 Red Monochrome Ribbon – 1,000 Prints – For Pebble, Dualys & Quantum Printers

The Evolis R2013 is a high-quality red monochrome resin ribbon designed for the striking personalisation of plastic cards. This ribbon is the ideal choice for organisations looking to highlight specific information, such as expiry dates, security clearance levels, or bold branding, with a vibrant red finish.

With an impressive yield of 1,000 prints per roll, the R2013 is a highly cost-effective solution for high-volume card production. The premium resin formulation ensures that red text, logos, and symbols are rendered with exceptional clarity and sharp edges, providing a professional look that is both smudge-resistant and durable.

The R2013 is a genuine consumable compatible with several generations of established Evolis printers:

• Evolis Pebble (Pebble 2, Pebble 3, and Pebble 4)

• Evolis Dualys (Dualys 2 and Dualys 3)

• Evolis Quantum and Quantum 2

• Evolis Securion

Key Features & Benefits

• Vibrant Red Colour: Delivers a bold, eye-catching red that is perfect for safety warnings, "Access Denied" indicators, or corporate colour matching.

• 1,000 Image Capacity: A high-yield roll that maximises operational efficiency by significantly reducing the frequency of ribbon changes during large print runs.

• Precision Thermal Transfer: The resin-based ink allows for the printing of fine lines, detailed icons, and small font sizes with absolute precision.

• Superior Adhesion: Specifically engineered to bond securely to PVC, composite PVC, and PET cards, ensuring the print remains vibrant even with frequent handling and surface friction.

• Exceptional Reliability: Designed to maintain steady tension throughout the printing process, which reduces the risk of ribbon snapping and ensures consistent print density.

Typical Applications

• Safety & Warning Labels: Print clear emergency instructions or "Fire Warden" designations on staff badges.

• Expiry Dates: Easily highlight "Valid Until" dates on membership or temporary site passes for quick visual verification by security staff.

• Tiered Membership: Use red text or borders to signify specific membership levels or restricted access zones.

• Healthcare ID: Ideal for denoting specific medical roles or allergy alerts on patient or staff cards.

Maintenance Advice

To maintain the highest print standards and protect the longevity of your thermal printhead, it is highly recommended to perform a cleaning cycle using a genuine cleaning kit every time you replace the R2013 ribbon. This prevents dust or residue from interfering with the transfer of the red resin, ensuring no "drop-outs" in your design.
