WAX THERMAL TRANSFER RIBBONS Choosing the proper ribbon for your substrate is critical for a long lasting, good looking label. Wax ribbons are the most economical and should be used to print most paper labels. Each printer has adjustments allowing the heat and speed to be adjusted. When printing in house, it is critical to realize these settings control the look of the label in many circumstances. Too much heat causes smearing and not enough causes light, non-scanning labels. If the proper ribbon is being used and the temperature is correct, you should have a crisp, clean label that scans every time. It is also critical to make sure you use thermal transfer printable materials. Other materials may print but if not coated for thermal transfer printing the label look and sometimes the scanability will be affected.
