FAQs
-
Does this replace lamination? No — it’s a thin varnish overlay. For maximum tamper resistance, consider a lamination module.
-
Can I hologram both sides? Yes — run a second overlay pass (or duplex if your workflow supports it).
-
Will it work in Primacy 1? No — this SKU is for Primacy 2 only.
Common questions
How many cards does one Evolis RVA222NAAA Hologram Varnish print?
400 single-sided cards per ribbon. If you print on both sides of a card, each card uses two prints, so one ribbon makes 200 two-sided cards.
How many ribbons do I need?
For 500 cards you need 2 ribbons, and for 1,000 cards you need 3, printing on one side. Use the calculator above for your exact number.
Which printers does the Evolis RVA222NAAA Hologram Varnish fit?
It fits the Evolis Primacy 2. Not sure which printer you have? Email sales@bodno.com and we’ll confirm it before you order.
What do YMCKO and YMCKOK mean?
These are ribbon codes showing the print panels:
- Y = Yellow
- M = Magenta
- C = Cyan
- K = Black (used for text/barcodes)
- O = Overlay (protective layer)
YMCKO is for single-sided color printing.
YMCKOK adds a second black panel for printing on the back.
Some ribbons are just K—used for black-only printing.
How long do color ribbons last if unopened?
Unopened ribbons can last 18–24 months when stored properly. Keep them sealed in original packaging, in a cool, dry place away from sunlight or humidity to preserve print quality.
