What is Thermal Printing?
|
|
A Thermal Transfer Printer is an electronic device for printing text
barcodes and graphics etc, on to a wide range of substrates.

|
How Does Thermal Transfer Work?
|
|
The basis of a Thermal Transfer Printer is an electronic print head
containing an array of tiny heating elements. The print head elements
generate enough heat to release pigment from an impregnated ribbon,
which is then pressed on to the substrate to create an image.
