• What is the difference between direct thermal and thermal transfer printing?

  Direct thermal printing uses heat-sensitive paper that darkens directly, while thermal transfer printing uses a ribbon to transfer ink onto the paper, offering more durable and fade-resistant printouts.

Barcode scanners and printers are valued in laboratory and pharmaceutical environments for improving sample tracking accuracy and reducing manual data entry errors. Buyers typically seek reliable, durable models that integrate well with existing systems. When purchasing used equipment, condition of optical components and print heads matters significantly. Common strengths include long operational lifespans and straightforward maintenance requirements. Compatibility with standard labelling formats and network connectivity are frequently assessed before purchase. Reputable brands tend to hold value well on secondary markets.
