The all-resin carbon tape is mainly suitable for thermal transfer printers, which transfer the ink of the carbon tape to the label paper through thermal transfer technology to form a durable printing effect. Specifically, all-resin carbon strips can be used on several types of printers:
1. Heat transfer label printer
Features: Thermal transfer label printers are designed for thermal transfer technology and enable precise control of the temperature and pressure between the print head and the carbon strip for high-quality printing results. Such printers are usually equipped with special reels and conveyor belts that can be adapted to various sizes of label paper.
Application: Suitable for applications requiring high quality and durable labels, such as logistics, warehousing, manufacturing, etc.
2. Thermal barcode printer
Features: Although the thermal barcode printer mainly uses thermal paper for printing, some high-end models also support printing through all-resin carbon tape to enhance the printing effect, so that it can cope with more harsh environmental conditions.
Application: In the need to print high-quality bar codes or labels, and the durability of printing materials have high requirements, such as medical, chemical and other fields.
Compatibility note
Physical compatibility: The specifications of the all-resin carbon strip (such as width, length, core diameter, etc.) need to match the specifications of the printer to ensure that the carbon strip can be loaded and printed smoothly.
Chemical compatibility: The ink formulation of the all-resin carbon strip needs to be compatible with the printer's print head material to avoid damaging the print head or affecting print quality.
Specific model example
According to the actual situation in the market, many well-known brands of thermal transfer label printers and thermal barcode printers support the use of all-resin carbon strips. For example, many models of printers from TSC, ARGOX, ZEBRA and other brands are compatible with all-resin carbon tape. However, the specific compatibility also needs to refer to the official instructions of the printer and the carbon belt or contact the supplier for consultation.
Sum up
Because of its excellent printing effect and durability, all-resin carbon tape is widely used in the need for high-quality, durable labels. When choosing a printer, the user should choose the appropriate thermal transfer label printer or thermal barcode printer that supports all resin carbon strips according to their actual needs (such as printing quantity, printing quality, printing material type, etc.) and budget. At the same time, it is also necessary to ensure that the selected printer has good physical and chemical compatibility with the all-resin carbon strip.
