Media and Ribbon Basics
Media Selection - Direct Thermal
Consider three important factors when selecting direct thermal stock:
The abrasive qualities of the material that covers the thermal reactive
layer of the paper.
The ability of that layer to control the chemical reaction that occurs
when the image is “burned”.
The amount of heat required to image the paper.
Media Selection - Thermal Transfer
Consider two important factors when selecting thermal transfer media
combinations:
Image quality is affected by the label top coating and ribbon
combinations.
Ribbon backcoating is highly recommended. It provides protection
for the printhead and many also provide an antistatic coating.
The following table is meant only as a guide. For the correct selection,
always consult a qualified Media Representative.
