Bar code printers, thermal and thermal transfer which good? _ printing equipment

Bar code printers, thermal and thermal transfer which good? Thermal preservation time is short, high temperature or room temperature for a period of time will become yellow difference and the thermal is don't need the benefits of carbon belt, easy installation and print save printer space, the handwriting is very easy to play out, don't fold or something. Thermal transfer, that is, with carbon belt, last longer, especially the use of mixed base or resin base print, with special carbon belt can also do the bad environment on the compounds such as high temperature and low temperature, the other is to have a carbon belt to protect the print head can effectively prolong the service life of the print head, but some more comprehensive cost than heat sensitive. So see you print something, use in what place, if is a small amount of printing, do not need to save for a long time with good thermal, cashier receipts, for example, price, etc. If you need to save for a long time and perform a great advice to use thermal transfer, can protect the print head and print the handwriting can keep much longer. Generally the mainstream brands of bar code machine now supports both thermal and thermal transfer ( Carbon belt) Print way. You can set to choose. Bar code printers, thermal and thermal transfer: the difference between the different materials: thermal machine use consumables: thermal paper; ( Thermal paper quality such as electronic says the price of the print barcode in the supermarket, I believe you have seen) ; Thermal printer can only use a dedicated thermal paper, thermal paper coated with a layer of will react when it is heated and the coating color, similar to the film, but this will change color after coating is heated, the use of the properties of thermosensitive coating, thermal printing technology came into being. Thermal transfer barcode printers use consumables: self-adhesive label paper, PET, PVC, wash water standard, tag and other tags medium, at the same time can also use the thermal paper printing; Different quality duration: thermal machine printed media to save time is not long, generally for half a year! ( The concrete depends on the location, luminosity, temperature and other environment decided the actual shelf life) Thermal transfer machine printed media stored for a long time, generally for more than two years ( Concrete depends on the use of label paper and carbon with quality) Use range is different: thermal machine: the supermarket, clothing store, logistics, retail and other requirements for barcode is not high; Heat transfer machine manufacturing, automobile industry, textile industry, telecommunications, food department, electronic industry, chemical industry, pharmaceutical industry, medical industry, utilities, retail distribution industry, transport and logistics, government agencies and other enterprises; Different cost: the cost comparison: thermal machine cost is low, the CD is low; Thermal transfer machine cost, material cost high cost than thermal machine;
