HID Global Ribbons
Direct-to-Card (DTC) Consumables
Precision-engineered DTC ribbons and overlaminates maximize the performance of your HID Global DTC
printers for secure, durable and sharp looking cards and IDs.
- DTC Ribbons: Custom dye-sublimation and resin ribbons work seamlessly with HID Global DTC printers
to produce secure and durable cards with colorful images, crisp text and precise bar codes.
- Thermal Transfer and PolyGuard Overlaminates: Applying an overlaminate to your printed cards
not only improves card durability and longevity; with an optional holographic design, overlaminates
can also significantly increase card security. Overlaminates with standard or custom holograms create
an ID card that is difficult to forge, yet easy to verify.

government credentials, to gift and loyalty cards, the DTC5500LMX’s patch placement consistency and rounded
laminate corners ensure sharp, professional-looking cards every time.
