Color mixed carbon ribbon is usually suitable for thermal transfer printers such as barcode printers and label printers. These printers achieve color printing by heating the print head, melting the colored coating on the carbon ribbon and transferring it onto printing media such as label paper, synthetic paper, etc.


Here are some printer types and their characteristics suitable for printing color mixed carbon ribbon:


1. Barcode printer:

A printer specifically designed for printing barcodes and labels.

Supports multiple types of carbon ribbons, including color blended carbon ribbons.

High printing quality, able to meet the requirements of barcode scanning and recognition.

2. Label printer:

A printer used for printing various labels, including product labels, asset management labels, etc.

It also supports color mixed carbon ribbon, which can print labels with rich colors.
