Extended-life ribbon cartridge, 4-pack

This four-pack contains Printronix 255048-402 extended-life ribbon cartridges for line-matrix printers. Each cartridge uses a self-contained design with an embedded microchip that tracks ribbon life and print quality. The ribbons are made for text and bar-code printing on business paper.

For 1000, 1500 and 2000 LPM P7000/P8000 models only

Suits operators of Printronix P7010, P7015, P7215, P7220, P8010, P8210, P8215 and P8220 printers running at 1000, 1500 or 2000 lines per minute. Buyers with 500 LPM models must use the standard-life 255049-402 ribbon instead.

Yields approximately 30000 pages per cartridge

Each ribbon prints around 30000 pages before replacement, reducing change frequency and operating cost per page. The microchip provides integrated control over ribbon consumption and print consistency throughout that yield.

How is the ribbon cartridge installed and what step is often missed?

Open the printer cover, remove the empty cartridge, insert the new 255048-402 cartridge until it clicks, then close the cover; the step often missed is not seating the cartridge firmly enough to engage the embedded microchip.
