The working principle of thermal transfer printer
Because there are a lot of labels, it must be able to stand the test of time requirements; long-term same type, the text must be long-term preservation, not fade, not because of contact with solvents to wear or discoloration due to higher temperature on the deformation and so on, so it is necessary to adopt a special Material print media and printed materials to ensure that these properties are generally inkjet printing technology can not reach, laser printing can not be reached, and the effect of stylus and original design can not meet the requirements, so with the emergence of sublimation technology.
Thermal transfer technology, simply put, is to use a special ribbon through the print head similar to a fax machine works, the toner coating ribbon on a heated manner, transferred to paper or other kinds of material , due to the ribbon on the coating material can be selected according to need, resulting in strong adhesion, plus the choice of print media, ensure better print out the handwriting is not affected by the outside world. And this heating process, and how heat can be handed over to a computer to control, there has been developed as a result of a variety of specialized software used to print labels, so, for users, very convenient, especially the General tab should generate bar codes, bar code symbols to produce such software therefore has become an indispensable tool.
