Understanding Thermal Transfer Ribbons
Thermal transfer ribbons are thin layers covered with specific material and are employed in thermal transfer printing. In thermal transfer printing, the ink from the thermal ribbon is transferred onto the substrate, for instance, paper or film, when heated by the printer printhead. The type of ribbon used depends on the material of the label and the printer's specifications.
When the ribbon coating is heated, thermal transfer ribbon’s function such that it melts while being transferred to the surface on which printing occurs. If there is enough heat generated by the print-head, then it becomes attached to the substrate resulting in long-lasting prints with no smudge or fading. It's important to choose the right ribbon based on the substrate you’re printing on and the printer type to ensure optimal results.
