Direct Thermal Printing


Direct Thermal Printing (DT)

Direct thermal printing does not require barcode ribbon in the printing process.
Direct thermal barcode label will change color (usually black) when contacted with head element of the direct thermal  printer. A disadvantage is durability, because another heat source can ruin or obscure the printing of the direct thermal barcode label, or it may fade completely over time.
