There are some differences in function and use between all-resin TTO ribbons and all-resin TTR ribbons, but it should be noted that the specific differences may vary by brand, model and application scenario. Here are the differences in general:
Printing method:
TTO (Thermal Transfer Overprinter) ribbon: mainly used for thermal transfer printing on existing labels or packaging, usually used for marking packaging films, metal foils and labels.
TTR (may refer to Thermal Transfer Ribbon, that is, thermal transfer ribbon) ribbon: it is more widely used in a variety of thermal transfer printing equipment, can be printed on blank labels, paper and other materials.
Application field:
Due to its special printing method and printing effect, TTO ribbon is often used in occasions requiring high-precision and high-quality printing, such as packaging industry, logistics labels, etc. [1].
TTR ribbon, because of its wide applicability, can be applied to a variety of areas requiring thermal transfer printing, including but not limited to label printing, bar code printing, ticket printing, etc.
Material characteristics:
All-resin TTO ribbon and all-resin TTR ribbon may be made of all-resin material, with high temperature resistance, scratch resistance and other characteristics, but the specific material formulation and performance may vary by brand and manufacturer.
Price:
Because TTO ribbons usually have higher printing accuracy and quality requirements, their price may be relatively high. TTR ribbon due to its wide range of applications and larger market demand, the price may be more affordable.
Please note that the above differences are based on general descriptions, and specific differences may vary by brand, model, and application scenario. You are advised to refer to the product description, technical specifications, and actual application requirements for selection and use.
