Laser
Printing
A process of imprinting where light generated from a
laser or diode creates a static charge on a photographically
sensitive cylinder. The charged cylinder attracts toner,
which is transferred to the label face creating an image. |
Ink
Jet Printing
A non-impact printing method whereby fluid ink is projected
from a nozzle directly onto a material to form a desired
image. Inkjet printers are one of the most common types of
printers and uses sheet labels. |
Pinfeed
Labels
Labels with round or rectangular hold punched into the
edge of a liner to maintain register of computer imprintable
pressure sensitive labels during imprinting. Also referred
to as "Feed Slots", "Tractor Feeds" or
"Marginal Perfs". |
Direct
Thermal Printing
A specialized printing technology that uses rapidly-heated
pins that selectively activate a heat-sensitive coating inherent
in the face material, thus forming the desired copy. It is
very important to order the correct labels for this printer and
to know the core size for your printer. |
Thermal
Transfer Printing
An imprinting method that uses heat and pressure to melt a
wax based ink onto the label or tag. It is very important
to order the correct labels for this printer and to know the
core size for your printer.
