- What is the difference between thermal transfer and direct thermal on this printer?
- Thermal transfer uses a ribbon and prints durable labels on plain paper stock. Direct thermal prints without a ribbon but needs heat-sensitive label stock and fades over time or with heat.
- What label width can it print?
- It is a 4.5-inch class printer, so it handles media up to about 4.5 inches wide. That covers standard shipping and barcode labels.
- Does it need a computer to print?
- It connects to a host system and is driven by label software or your warehouse or ERP system. It is not a standalone keyboard printer.
- Is it suitable for a small office?
- It works, but it is an industrial unit built for volume. A small office printing a few labels a day would likely find a desktop printer simpler.
- What supplies does it use?
- Thermal transfer ribbons for transfer mode and direct thermal label rolls for ribbon-free printing. Media rolls load on the spindle.
