image transfer. In Thermal Transfer mode,
compatibility between the ribbon and the media is
critical in producing a high quality, long lasting image.
Thermal Transfer
Printing
A printing method in which the printhead presses a
specially coated ribbon against the media. The
printhead elements react with the ribbon and bond
the image to the media.
Transmissive
Sensing
Use of the upper media sensor to transmit infrared
light through the top of media which is then received
by the lower media sensor to detect gaps, holes, or
notches for determining the Top-of-Form position on
labels or for indicating a Paper Out condition.
