When selecting a material, note the following items:
– The abrasiveness of the printing surface.
– The chemical reaction when the ink is transferred.
– The temperature required to transfer the ink.
If the material is very abrasive, the printhead wears more quickly than normal.
This is important in thermodirect printing. It is not so critical for thermotransfer
printing, because the ribbon can be wider than the material, ensuring that the
printhead is protected across the entire width of the material.
The same applies if the temperature of the printhead is too high. The material
and ribbon take longer to cool down, the print quality is more critical and the
printhead wears out more quickly.
For paper thicker than 240g, adjust the contact pressure and the position of
the printhead.
Ribbon (Foil)
Width:
Length:
The ribbon width must be greater than the material width. Since some
material is more abrasive to printheads than others, using a ribbon wider than
your material helps protect the printhead. Replacement printheads are
expensive.
