Wavecom Printing Ribbon
In support of the Wavecom Tags we offer two grades of ribbons for printing electrical test tags. Our standard 
ribbon (WCM-Ribbon) is recommended for locations where the printed tag is not exposed to harsh outdoor 
conditions, such as offices and factories.
Our UV Ribbon (WCM-UV-Ribbon) is recommended for harsher environments like mines or where the 
equipment is being tested is exposed to the elements. To ensure the durability of print on your tag it is 
essential that the right ribbon is used on the appropriate label material.

Laminated Overlays
In locations where a tag is exposed to harsh chemicals or extreme environments a printed tag may need 
additional protection to ensure it is readable when the appliance needs to be retested. In these instances, 
clear film overlays can be applied over the top of an existing tag. These clear laminate overlays are made of 
strong durable synthetic materials and come with an adhesive backing that ensures that when the overlay is 
stuck down it stays stuck. This allows you to use your standard Wavecom tags in harsh environments where a 
standard tag would not normally be suitable.
To use our laminated overlays, the clear laminate is placed over the printed tag before removing it from the 
backing paper. The combined tag and overlay is then removed from the backing paper and applied to the 
appliance as normal.
