Intermec offers three types of thermal transfer ribbons optimized
for different purposes:
• General Purpose (GP)/Standard transfer ribbons allow high
speed printing and give a good printout, but are somewhat
sensitive to smearing, especially on smooth surfaces. They are the
best choice for coarse surfaces like Vellum.
• High Performance (HP)/Premium transfer ribbons allow high
speed printing and give a highly readable and defi ned printout
on most face materials with smooth surfaces. They have a
good "smear resistance" and are most suitable for intricate
logotypes and images.
• High Resistance (HR)/Super Premium transfer ribbons give
an extremely durable printout, which is resistant to most
chemical agents and high temperatures. However, these transfer
ribbons set high demands on the receiving face material,
which must be very smooth, especially for the printing of
ladder-style bar codes.
The use of HR/Super Premium ribbons requires the print speed
and the energy supplied by the printhead to be controlled
with great accuracy according to the receiving face material.
Custom-made setup options adapted for special applications can
also be created. Consult your distributor.
