What Makes DNP Media Professional Grade

Complete Media Pack System

Each kit contains everything needed for 220 prints—two paper rolls (110 prints each) paired with two YMCO ink ribbons in a 1:1 replacement cycle. This complete pack system ensures you never run out of paper whilst still having ribbon remaining, eliminating waste and simplifying inventory management.

Protective Overcoat Layer

DNP's dye-sublimation process includes a protective overcoat that's applied during printing, which makes finished prints resistant to fingerprints, water splashes, and environmental fading. This overcoat layer is particularly valuable at events where prints are handled immediately after output.

Selectable Finish Options

Choose between glossy or matte finish via the printer driver without changing media—the same roll produces either finish depending on your selection. This flexibility allows portrait studios to offer both finish types to clients without maintaining separate media inventory.

Multi-Cut Capability

The DS80 printer's multi-cut function allows you to produce 8×10" (20×25cm) prints from this 8×12" media with minimal waste, which provides print size flexibility from a single media kit—particularly useful for portrait studios offering both standard and custom sizes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I print 8×10" photos using this 8×12" media? +

Yes, the DNP DS80 printer includes a multi-cut function that allows you to produce 8×10" (20×25cm) prints from this 8×12" media kit with minimal waste. This provides flexibility to offer both standard 8×12" and custom 8×10" prints from the same media inventory, which is particularly valuable for portrait studios serving clients with varied size preferences.
Does the media kit include both paper and ink ribbons? +

Yes, each DS80 media kit is a complete pack containing both paper rolls and matching YMCO ink ribbons in a 1:1 ratio—two paper rolls providing 110 prints each, paired with two ink ribbons. This ensures you replace both components simultaneously, eliminating the waste and complexity of managing separate paper and ribbon inventory.
How do I switch between glossy and matte finishes? +

The finish selection is made via the DNP DS80 printer driver software before sending each print—simply choose glossy or matte from the print settings, and the same media roll will produce the selected finish. There's no need to maintain separate media inventory for different finishes, which simplifies stock management for studios offering both options to clients.
How long will DS80 media remain available? +

Photomart will continue stocking DS80 media whilst it remains available from DNP and whilst we can maintain viable inventory levels. However, we cannot guarantee indefinite availability as this depends on DNP's manufacturing decisions. If you're planning significant future volume requirements, we recommend contacting our team to discuss stock availability and potential alternative solutions including the DS820 platform.
