MAX Bepop SL-R104TC blue ribbon cassette, 55 m for CPM-100HG5M

SL-R104TC is a blue ribbon cassette, ready to load with 55 m of ribbon for the CPM-100HG5M print-and-cut label maker (100 type). The print head heats the resin ink to about 250 °C and fuses it into the vinyl surface, so text resists solvents, cleaners and UV far better than inkjet or laser printing.

Blue ink is used for text or accents on light sheets – prohibition and directional signs, area colour codes, several colours on one label.

The cassette loads in seconds without tools; several colours can be swapped between passes to make multi-colour labels. For heavy use, choose the refillable cassette SL-R104RC with SL-TR refills to cut cost.

Specifications and printing

• Ribbon cassette, ready to load; 55 m of ribbon for 100-type printers (CPM-100HG5M).
• Resin thermal transfer: the head heats to about 250 °C and fuses the ink into the sheet; it does not smear when wiped with alcohol.
• Each print uses ribbon equal to the label length regardless of text coverage – batch small labels into one job to save ribbon.
• Multi-colour labels: Bepop PC EX separates colour layers and the printer prompts for cassette changes between passes.

Sheets that suit blue ink

• Light sheets for legible text: SL-S112GN, SL-S115GN, SL-S112NL, SL-S108GN, SL-S110GN, SL-S153NL.
• Label and ribbon pairing examples: User guide.

Loading the cassette

• Turn the printer off and open the top cover.
• Hold the cassette and turn the gear in the arrow direction to tension the ribbon.
• Hook the cassette onto the cover and press until it clicks.
• Close the cover until it locks and power on; select the loaded ink colour in the driver for multi-colour jobs.
• Print a small test label to check density and position.
• See the videos below and the User guide.

Storage and troubleshooting

• Store in the closed box in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and dust; do not touch the ink side.
• Faint or broken text: clean the head with an alcohol swab, check the ribbon is taut and raise the density in the driver.
• Wrinkled ribbon: re-tension with the cassette gear before loading.
• Error messages or no cutting: see Maintenance & repair.
