Integrated solutions for retail warehouse, in-store, PoS and promotions printing

Datamax-O'Neil, a global provider of label and receipt printing solutions, has extended its portfolio of stationary printer supplies with the new thermal transfer ribbons IQWax, IQMid and IQRes. The ribbons are compatible with all of Datamax-O'Neil's stationary printers and produce high-quality images as well as offering a high tolerance to environmental extremes. "Our new thermal transfer ribbons IQWax, IQMid and IQRes meet the requirements for the broadest range of applications," said Christian Bischoff, Regional General Manager EMEA at Datamax-O'Neil. "The ribbons can be used for label and receipt printing in diverse industries like healthcare, automotive, retail, and pharmaceuticals."

 
The IQWax is a premium general purpose resin-enhanced wax ribbon with comprehensive functions: It provides for dark, defined images and offers enhanced smudge and scratch resistance. In addition, it delivers labels and receipts at speeds of up to twelve inches per second, including rotated barcodes. The IQWax is Datamax-O'Neil's most frequently tested ribbon and prevents static build-up. It is especially suitable for printing shipping labels and barcodes as well as retail bags and storage labels.
 
The IQMid also offers a wide range of functions. The premium wax-resin ribbon is highly resistant to smudge and produces high-quality images on a broad range of label and receipt materials. With up to twelve inches per second of print speed, it performs as fast as the IQWax ribbon. Datamax- O'Neil recommends the IQMid to be used for label printing in shipping and retail environments as well as inventory management.
 
The IQRes is a superior resin ribbon, which prevents smudgy images. It delivers an excellent print quality on a variety of material like papers and films. Furthermore, it offers comprehensive resistance to scratches and even performs under high temperatures. The IQRes is suited for label printing in extreme application environments, such as those that can be found in production, retail and logistics applications.
