Transfer Ribbons
Intermec offer three ranges of thermal transfer ribbons optimized
for different purposes:
• General Purpose (GP/TMX 1500) transfer ribbons allow
highspeed printing and give a good printout, but are
somewhat sensitive to smearing. They may be the best choice
for uncoated and coatedpapers.
• High Performance (HP/TMX 2200, TMX 2500) transfer
ribbons allow high speed printing and give a highly readable
and defined printout on most face materials with smooth
surfaces. They have good “smear resistance” and are most
suitable for intricate logotypes and images on matte-coated
papers and synthetic face materials.
• High Resistance (HR/TMX 3200) transfer ribbons give an
extremely durable printout, which is resistant to most
chemical agents and high temperatures. However, such
transfer ribbons set high demands on the receiving face
material, which must be very smooth, such as polyesters.
The use of HR/TMX 3200 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 Intermec distributor.
Note: Intermec thermal transfer ribbons are engineered
specifically for the EasyCoder printheads.
