When using Spot Color ribbons, each of the four stations prints a fully saturated color. Any color can be installed on any print station and the location of each color is defined in Color QuickLabel 99 Pro software or the QuickLabel Systems Windows Printer Driver.
When using Process Color ribbons, each of the print stations prints a dot pattern of a primary color (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, or Black) which overlap each other on the label to produce a wide range of colors. Process Color ribbon must be installed on specific print stations as defined below. CMYK printing is commonly used while some specific applications may call for KCMY printing where the black ribbon is printed last.
| CMYK | KCMY |
Print Station 1 | Cyan | Black |
Print Station 2 | Magenta | Cyan |
Print Station 3 | Yellow | Magenta |
Print Station 4 | Black | Yellow |
As an aid, a threading diagram showing the thermal transfer ribbon path is printed on the center plate of the printer.
