TSC TH240HC-A002-0001 Dye Sublimation Ribbon Cartridge
Overview
The TH240HC-A002-0001 is a dye sublimation ribbon cartridge engineered for TSC TH240-series card printers. This consumable supplies the full-color print medium required for ID badge production, access control credentials, and secure labeling workflows. Drop in the cartridge, and the printer transfers dye-sublimated color to compatible card stock at 203 dpi — no mixing, no setup beyond standard ribbon replacement.
Compatibility
Use this cartridge with TSC TH240 and DH240 thermal transfer card printer models. Verify your printer serial and model before ordering — ribbon cartridges are model-specific and will not fit other TSC series (TH220, TH260, etc.) without mechanical modification. Installation is a standard hot-swap procedure: open the printer's ribbon compartment, seat the cartridge in the guides, and close the access panel. No tools required.
Installation Notes
Before installing, confirm the printer is powered off and the ribbon compartment is accessible. Align the cartridge with the slot guides and insert straight in — forcing or angling the cartridge can damage the spool mechanism. Once seated, verify the ribbon feeds smoothly by running a test print from your card design software. If color output appears streaked or faded after installation, the ribbon may not be fully engaged; remove and reseat it. Store unused cartridges in a cool, dry environment to prevent dye degradation.
