Compatible with all leading thermal printers
Thermal printer labels for ribbon printers are the perfect solution for a wide range of labeling needs, including product and barcode labels. Ideal for businesses seeking reliable and high-quality printing solutions, these labels offer both durability and clarity, making them an excellent choice for various applications.
Known for their cost-effectiveness and longevity, unlike direct thermal labels, which can fade over time, thermal transfer labels are designed to withstand various environmental factors. The print quality remains sharp and readable for a longer period, reducing the need for frequent replacements and ensuring your labels stay legible.
Labels are outside-wound, ensuring smooth and hassle-free loading into your ribbon printer. This winding style helps prevent label jams and ensures consistent printing performance, making the labeling process more efficient and less time-consuming.
Each label comes with a self-adhesive backing, allowing for quick and secure attachment to various surfaces. This feature ensures that your labels stay firmly in place, reducing the risk of labels peeling off or becoming damaged.
How to use thermal printer labels for ribbon printers
Choose a ribbon:
Consider the type of ribbon you want to use, such as wax, resin, or a combination of both. Wax ribbons are less expensive and can be a good choice for retail products, while resin ribbons are more durable and can withstand almost any conditions.
Position the ribbon:
Run the ribbon between the label and the printhead, with the coated side of the ribbon facing the label.
Print:
As the ribbon and label pass over the printhead, the heat from the printhead will melt the ribbon's coating and transfer it to the label. The melted pigment will then fuse to the label to create the image or text.
