Product Q&A

Q:Direct thermal vs thermal transfer: what's the difference?

Direct thermal uses heat-sensitive paper, no ribbon needed, low cost for short-term labels (shipping, retail). Thermal transfer uses ribbon for durable, scratch/water-resistant prints for long-term inventory and asset tags.

Q:203dpi or 300dpi, which resolution to choose?

203dpi works for regular product, shipping and price labels. 300dpi is for tiny barcodes, precision component labels and high-resolution graphics.

Q:What label sizes and materials are supported?

Most models fit labels 20-110mm wide, compatible with thermal paper, coated paper, synthetic paper, PET, wash labels and hang tags. See model specs for exact limits.

Q:What connectivity and system compatibility does it have?

Standard USB; some models support Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and serial port. Works with Windows, most support Mac, and fit mainstream label editing software.

Q:How expensive are consumables? Must I use original supplies?

Direct thermal only needs thermal paper (lowest cost); thermal transfer requires ribbon. Almost all models work with third-party supplies, no original-only restriction.
