How to Determine Material Compatibility for the BBP85 and PowerMark
Body
BBP85 and PowerMark Media Compatibility
The BBP85 and PowerMark materials are very similar, however not all PowerMark media will work in the BBP85 and vice-versa. If material is incompatible the BBP85 may display "Invalid Supply - Error reading media memory cell - Insert media memory cell again or replace media - if error persists, contact technical support".
Error #64 appears when trying to use a ribbon in the BBP85 that has a touch cell programmed to work with Only a PowerMark printer.
Error #49 appears when trying to use a label roll in the BBP85 that has a touch cell programmed to work with Only a PowerMark printer.

Additional Compatibility Indicators
For Ribbons and Label Materials that have a Purple touch cell "flag":
If the label on the flag has a letter "A" on the upper right, the material / ribbon should work in Both BBP85 AND PowerMark
If the label on the flag does Not have a large letter "A" on the upper right, the material / ribbon will work in PowerMark ONLY
For Ribbons and Label Materials that have a Yellow touch cell "Flag":
If the label on the Flag says BBP85 ONLY, then that material Only works in the BBP85 printer
If the label on the Flag says BBP85 AND PowerMark, then material / ribbon will work in Both BBP85 AND PowerMark printer
