Types of Labels:
Direct Thermal Labels
Direct Thermal Labels do not require a ribbon. The direct thermal label is chemically coated to react to temperature. Image is produced as heat is applied to the surface of the coated material. RMS Omega provides a wide range of sizes to suit your printing needs. Labels come with either a 1 inch or 3 inch core.
Thermal Transfer Labels
Thermal Transfer Labels use the same basic technology as direct thermal, but with the elimination of chemically-coated media in favor of a non-sensitized face stock and a special inked ribbon. A durable polyester ribbon film coated with a dry thermal transfer ink is placed between the thermal printhead and label. The thermal printhead is used to melt the ink onto the label surface, where it cools and anchors to the media surface. The polyester ribbon is then peeled away, leaving behind a stable, passive image.
