Thermal Transfer Ribbon

T 436 Sw

Wax/resin
Flat-Head

is the most sensitive of our wax/resin ribbon qualities for flat-head printers. Thanks to its high sensitivity, only a relatively low energy input is required, which also extends the service life of the print head. It also produces the blackest print and enables excellent print quality and high resolution, especially on coated papers and films with a top coat. It can also be the solution for difficult surfaces.

Its durability is also at the top of the wax/resin grades. The print is smudge-proof , has limited erasure resistance and is difficult to remove with adhesive tape. It also performs well in its group in terms of chemical resistance:

the print has very good to good resistance, particularly to motor oil, the household cleaner white spirit and diesel.
