General
Purpose Thermal Transfer Labels
Thermal printing uses
heat from a stationary print head that contains many small resistive heating
elements. These elements create dot patterns that product the actual image
on paper.
There are two types of
thermal print technology: direct and transfer. Direct-thermal printers require
a specially coated paper that when heated will reveal a dark image. Thermal
transfer printers use heat-activated ribbons that transfer the ink to the
paper.

Things
to consider when selecting label material
- How long must your
label last?
- What level of moisture
or humidity will the label be exposed to?
- What temperature range
must be withstood during the application of use of the label?
- What level of abrasion
from handling or scanning is anticipated?
- Is the label intended
for indoor or outdoor use, or both?
- Is high durability
and tear resistance necessary?
- What are the surface
characteristics of the product or item to be labeled?
- Is the label intended
to be permanent or removable?
- Is a tamper evident
material necessary?
- Is chemical, oil,
blood or solvent resistance necessary?
