Thermal Transfer Ribbon
T 174 Bl
is one of our brilliant wax-quality inks for paper and board materials. It can be used on all label printers with flat-head printheads. The wax inks can be used for printing on all vellum, matt and gloss coated papers and board materials. Foils such as PE can also be printed. This quality is gentle on the print head as it is very sensitive and prints excellently at up to 250 mm/s over a wide temperature range.
The print is limited smudge but not scratch resistant. It can be removed with an eraser after a few cycles but remains legible in the tape test. The print is waterproof, but resistance to chemicals is low.
Coloured thermal transfer ribbons are used for automated printing of labels or on packaging when important information needs to be highlighted in colour or printed in the company colour and, of course, when the colour on the label has to match the product: Dark blue is a commonly used corporate colour and barcodes and 2D codes can be read well by all scanners.
If the colour does not fit exactly, we can develop custom colours from a purchase quantity of 10,000 m²!
