Description

We supply thermal transfer ribbons for barcode printers and fax machines. Thermal Transfer Ribbon (TTR) is the “ink” used in Thermal Transfer printing. Instead of the liquid ink we are used to in our desktop inkjet printers thermal transfer “ink” is melted plastic and wax on a thin foil backing. TTR is available in three basic configurations: wax, wax/resin, and resin. The labelstock, the application, and the durability requirements determine which type of TTR is needed (the cost of the TTR increases as the durability requirement increases).
