Thermal Transfer Labels

Thermal Transfer (TT) technology is similar to direct thermal in that it uses the same type of printhead, except that a ribbon is interposed between the printhead and the label material. The ribbons are available in three main types: wax, wax/resin or pure resin and usually come in black however other colours are available. Since the density is determined by the ribbon and the printer’s resolution, this method produces consistent, reliable printing on every label.
