8.1 DESCRIPTION
There are 3 types of paper for use in printing with the Poster Printer 3000.
Direct Thermal Paper (DTP), Thermal Transfer Paper (TTP) and Heavy Duty Poly Paper (HDP).
8.1.1 Direct Thermal Paper (DTP)
Direct Thermal Paper is used to easily create posters, banners, and materials
to be displayed indoors.
Inexpensive and striking, there are a total of 7 colors of Direct Thermal Paper.
8.1.2 Thermal Transfer Paper (TTP)
Remove the ink film after printing to reveal a high quality printed image.
Similar to plain paper which resists discoloration, Thermal Transfer Paper is suitable for use
in creating signs or posters to be displayed over long periods of time. Thermal Transfer Paper
may also be written on with waterproof markers, and laminated for further protection.
8.1.3 Heavy Duty Poly Paper (HDP)
Made of plastic, HDP Paper is waterproof and offers excellent durability which makes it
suitable for use in printing posters or banners which need no further lamination or protection
for displaying outdoors.
Similar to TTP, the ink film is removed after printing to reveal a high quality printed image.
HDP Paper may also be written on with waterproof markers.
8.2 POINTS TO NOTE WHEN USING POSTER PRINTER SUPPLIES
8.2.1 Points common to all types of Poster Printer supplies
Never put paper in places subject to high temperatures, as doing so may result in discoloration.
Once a package of paper has been opened, keep it away from places subject to excessively
high or low levels of humidity. Failing to do so may cause the paper to expand or shrink,
which may make installation in the printer impossible.
Never store paper in a place where it will be subjected to direct sunlight, as doing so may
result in discoloration.
