Wax, Mixed-Base & Resin Barcode Ribbon

PRODUCT DETAILS

Product specification

Barcode-printing ribbon with wax, mixed-base and resin options. Identify the formulation you need, the label material and the exact printer model.

Thermal transfer ribbons carry the coating that a thermal-transfer printer transfers onto compatible label media to print text, barcodes and identification. CXPAPER includes ribbons in its product range; an enquiry should identify the exact printer, label face material and the ribbon format already in use, if known. Width and length are only the beginning: the core, winding arrangement and ink-coated side also need attention. For barcode and identification workflows, describe the exposures the printed label will face and the information that must remain readable. Review the proposed combination on your own equipment and media before selecting the ribbon for an order or a change of formulation.

Printer and application checks

• Check that the workflow uses thermal transferDirect thermal printing does not use a ribbon. Confirm the printer method and the label construction first, then collect the ribbon requirements from the exact model’s instructions. A ribbon enquiry should identify both the media and the equipment, even when a replacement roll looks familiar.
• Label every dimension and core requirementGive width in millimetres and length in metres, plus core and outside-diameter requirements. A notation such as 110 × 300 without labels is not a complete specification. Photograph or describe the current core arrangement and any take-up requirements rather than relying on width alone.
• Confirm the ink-coated sideCoated side in, often shortened to CSI, and coated side out, or CSO, describe which face of the wound ribbon carries ink. The printer’s required orientation must be checked. Do not guess from the roll colour or try to solve an incorrect coated side by changing the print darkness.
