Printek® Brand Ribbon Label

Printek brand ribbons can be identified by the above label on each ribbon. There are many reasons to use only Printek brand ribbons in your FormsMaster 8000se series printer. First of all, using only Printek

brand ribbons will automatically extend the print head warranty to two years.

The reason this is possible is that Printek brand ribbons are manufactured to much higher quality standards than those offered by other manufacturers. This provides not only longer print head life, but also longer ribbon life… 23 million characters as compared to only 15 million characters from some generic ribbons.

Remember that using only Printek brand ribbons is important because the wear that is started and the contamination that remains from even one inferior ribbon will continue to damage the print head. Also, damage to other printer components which is caused by the use of non-Printek ribbons will not be covered by the printer’s warranty.
