Frequently asked questions

  • Q: What does YMCKOK stand for, and what is its purpose?
    A: YMCKOK refers to Yellow, Magenta, Cyan, Black, and Overlay. This ribbon configuration supports full-color badge printing with a protective clear overlay that enhances durability and helps resist fading, smudges, and UV exposure.
  • Q: How many badges can I print with a single YMCKOK pack?
    A: The typical yield is about 200 images per cartridge, though exact counts depend on print area coverage and printer model. For dense full-colour prints, expect closer to the lower end of the yield range.
  • Q: Which Fargo printers are compatible with YMCKOK ribbons?
    A: YMCKOK ribbons are designed for Fargo printers that support dye-sub/thermal transfer ribbons. Compatible models generally include Fargo DTC-series and HDP-series devices. Always verify your printer’s ribbon compatibility in the user manual or manufacturer's site.
  • Q: How should I store and handle these ribbons?
    A: Store ribbons in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep them in their original packaging until installation to prevent dust ingress and color degradation. Handle ribbons by the edges to avoid fingerprints on the color panels.
  • Q: What benefits does the overlay (clear) layer provide?
    A: The overlay protects printed text and color images from abrasion, scratches, and fading due to UV exposure. It helps badges retain their professional appearance over time, even with frequent handling.

Works Very Well
Size: 120g 8.5" x 11"
I am new to sublimation printing, and purchased this based on recommendations from multiple websites. I'm so glad I did! It transfers well onto several mediums, including shirts, totes, mousepads and cups. I've never had any jams or misfeeds, and the quality of the paper is high. I'll definitely purchase again!

I Exclusively Use ONLY Hiipoo Products - Simply the BEST!
Size: 120g 8.5" x 11"
I'm just about to purchase this product for the 3rd time. I simply cannot believe how well this product works for me. In the past, I had a $2k Ricoh sublimation printer, using Sawgrass ink, and specialty sublimation paper. That expensive Ricoh printer didn't last over 2 years. I took such great care of that machine, and it was terrible. Now, I use an Epson-2800, and I ONLY USE Hiipoo ink and paper, because it is THE BEST! Hiipoo inks work excellent in Epson printers, but you must initially start with their ink, you cannot add the ink to whatever you already have in your printer. This paper is compatible with Epson printers. I will exclusively only use Hiipoo products. The quality is unmatched. The performance is superior. The value is outstanding. I HIGHLY recommend Hiipoo products. I am not a paid spokesperson, not do I receive compensation for this review. I just own a business that provides laser engraving and sublimation printed items. You cannot go wrong using this sublimation paper. Buy their inks too, the quality of the printed items are exceptional. Excellent thickness of paper. It's durable, dries quickly and the color quality is excellent! Love Hiipoo products!!!

I love Hiipoo sublimation paper!Colors come out crisp and clear. And so bright and beautiful! The pattern on the back is a real big plus also. This paper is great quality, not flimsy, thick enough that it's easy to use and printers don't have problems picking it up.
