Thermal transfer technology was introduced into the packaging industry initially for on-demand bar coding and labelling. Package overprinting was not viable until smaller coders such as the Easyprinters were designed, which fit into the manufacturing line. Manufacturer’s top three demands for their product coding systems are the need for faster changeover times, improved traceability and high quality codes.

Thermal transfer printing offers multiple product coding, bar code and graphics capabilities and the ability to print real time codes. Thermal transfer coding is fast, results in little stress to the substrate and allows digital-to-print, or programmed legends. Programmed legends allow the user to code products with the exact time of day, incrementing product numbers and automatically changing shift codes as well as typical ‘fixed’ data.

An inkjet printer is a type of computer printer that creates a digital image by propelling variably-sized droplets of liquid material (ink) onto a surface.

Inkjet printers come as either fixed-head, or disposable head. A fixed-head inkjet printer provides an inbuilt print head which is designed to last for the life of the printer.

A disposable head inkjet printer uses a print head which is supplied as a part of a replaceable ink cartridge. Every time a cartridge is exhausted, the entire cartridge and print head are replaced with a new one.
