Wax Resin Thermal Transfer Ribbon for Durable Labels
Get crisp, clear barcodes and a durable result for your labels with our resin and wax/resin thermal transfer ribbon products. A combination wax/resin ribbon is an ideal option for most applications and will provide long lasting results on most paper, synthetic and glossy label stock. If you need something truly heavy duty then ask us about full resin thermal transfer ribbon, which chemically bonds to synthetic label stock. All our labels are suitable for use on Zebra and Toshiba printers. Thermal Labels is based in Sydney, so your order will arrive in a matter of days to keep you printing.
What Size and Length of Thermal Ribbon Will I Need?
When buying your thermal transfer ribbon in resin or wax/resin, choose a width that’s at least as wide as the label stock you’re printing on including backing allowance. To calculate how many labels you’ll get out of a ribbon, simply add your label height to the gap between labels (if applicable), and divide the ribbon length by this number. You can see printer model compatibility on the page of each wax/resin thermal transfer ribbon product, too. Check out our wax resin ribbon prices below.
Wax Resin Thermal Transfer Ribbon: Frequently Asked Questions
What are the key features of wax-resin ribbons that make them suitable for various labelling applications?
Wax-resin ribbons are a versatile solution for printing on both paper and synthetic labels, making them an excellent choice for those who need an all-in-one solution. A wax-resin thermal transfer ribbon produces a sharp, clear print, ideal for use on barcodes and shipping labels that need to be read from a distance.
How do wax-resin ribbons perform compared to pure wax or pure resin ribbons?
Compared to wax and resin alternatives, a hybrid wax-resin thermal ribbon offers a number of advantages. Wax-resin ribbons are more durable than pure wax versions, providing greater resistance to chemicals and harsh environments. They also produce a sharper print than a pure wax ribbon, and suit a wider variety of label materials than a pure resin ribbon, which are usually for use only on synthetic materials.
