Transfer ribbon - resin - 40mm x 300m
Description
This narrow resin ribbon (40mm) is meant for smaller labels that still take a beating: think of rating plates, cable labels, small product labels in a warehouse or lab, or labels exposed to chemicals, heat or friction. The narrow width makes it suitable for desktop label printers that work with smaller labels.
The difference with wax lies in the composition: resin is far more chemical- and heat-resistant than wax, and also adheres well to synthetic (plastic) labels. Is it just plain paper labels without any special demands? Then a wax ribbon is more affordable.
This ribbon is used together with a thermal transfer printer: the printhead melts the resin coating on the ribbon onto the label, giving a print that resists scratches, solvents and extreme temperatures.
Universally compatible: suitable for most label printers that support this ribbon format, such as Zebra, Honeywell, TSC, Godex, Citizen and more.

Frequently asked questions
What kind of printer or label is this narrow 40mm version meant for?
<p>This narrow, 40mm resin ribbon is meant for smaller labels on compact desktop or mid-range label printers, things like rating plates, cable and wire labels, small component or sample labels in a lab or workshop, roughly up to about 35-37mm wide including backing paper.</p><p>The resin formulation means it's aimed at label materials and conditions where wax wouldn't hold up well: plastic labels, or labels exposed to some wear, moisture or chemicals, just at a smaller scale than the wider industrial formats.</p>
Why does this ribbon only exist as resin, not also as wax or wax/resin?
<p>At the moment, this particular 40mm x 300m format is only offered as resin in this catalogue. Narrower ribbon formats like this tend to be used for smaller, often more demanding labels, such as component or cable labels, where the extra durability of resin is more likely to be needed than on wide general-purpose paper labels.</p><p>If you specifically need a wax or wax/resin ribbon at 40mm width, get in touch, other lengths or a custom order may be possible even if it isn't listed as a standard product yet.</p>
