Printer Ribbons for Your Business

Printer ribbons are required when using thermal transfer labels or flexible packaging film.   Ribbons need to be matched/compatible to the label stock in order to optimize print quality and performance.  The choice of wax, wax/resin and resin is dictated by the use case for the label.
