Wax / Resin ribbons are a combination of wax and resin based colorant substances in which resin substances hold a greater percentage. Wax / Resin ribbons are made of two or more layers. Resin substances have a higher melting point thus increasing the melting point of the ribbon. Printing with Wax / Resin ribbons takes place at a higher heat or energy setting then wax ribbons. This gives Wax / Resin ribbons

·         More durability, chemical resistance and abrasion smudge scratch resistance than that of wax based ribbons.

·         Excellent edge definition.

·         Can be used with glossy or smooth surfaces, synthetic materials or the normal plain paper (coated) labels.

·         Printing speeds of 16 inches per second can be achieved with Wax / Resin ribbons.

·         Wax / Resin ribbons can be used for all purposes where wax ribbons are used but where there is a chance of abrasion or scratch due to contact.
