Function Description
Resin Resin Thermal Transfer is the print method the Printer uses to print
Thermal sharp black text and crisp bar codes that can be read by both infrared
Transfer and visible-light bar code scanners.
Like Dye-Sublimation, this process uses the same thermal Printhead
to transfer color to a card from a resin-only Print Ribbon or the resin
black (K) panel of a full color Print Ribbon.
The difference, however, is that solid dots of resin-based ink are
transferred and fused to the surface of the card. (Note: This
produces very durable, saturated printing.)
