What do I need to pay attention to when using color thermal label paper?

When using color thermal label paper, it is necessary to pay attention to the following aspects to ensure its normal use and extend its service life:

1. Storage environment

Dry and ventilated: Color heat-sensitive label paper should be stored in a dry and ventilated environment to avoid moisture resulting in paper deformation or affecting the printing effect.

Avoid direct sunlight: Long periods of direct sunlight may cause the paper to fade or age, so you should avoid exposing the paper to direct sunlight.

Suitable temperature: The storage temperature should not be too high and too low, the storage temperature range of thermal paper is usually between -20 ° C and 50 ° C.

Dust and pollution prevention: The storage environment should be kept clean to prevent dust and pollutants from adhering to the paper, affecting the print quality and the durability of the paper. At the same time, it is also necessary to avoid contact with organic solvents, because the thermal layer of thermal paper is easy to react with organic solvents.

Avoid long-term storage: Color thermal label paper has a certain durability, but long-term storage may lead to aging of the paper or affect the printing effect. Therefore, it is recommended to purchase and store paper according to the actual demand to avoid long-term backlog.

2. Print setup and use

Choose the right paper: Make sure the color thermal label paper you use matches the printer specifications.

Reasonable setting of printing parameters: according to the requirements of the printer and the characteristics of the paper, the correct setting of printing parameters, such as printing temperature, printing speed, etc., to ensure the printing effect and quality. Avoid making random changes to the Settings, as random changes may result in poor printing results or damage to the printer.

Clean the print head regularly: In order to prevent dust and other debris from affecting the print quality, the print head should be cleaned regularly.

Anti-scratch: The surface of the color thermal label paper is fragile and susceptible to scratch damage, so direct contact with sharp objects should be avoided during use.

Reduce direct contact: Minimize direct contact with the paper, especially when hands are wet or greasy, so as not to contaminate the paper or affect the printing effect.

Check the print: Check the print carefully before printing to make sure the information is accurate.

3. Safety and health

Follow the manufacturer's guidance: When using color thermal label paper, the manufacturer's guidance and recommendations should be followed to ensure the normal use of the paper and extend the service life.

Pay attention to personal protection: Although the current thermal paper has a very safe guarantee, in order to avoid some manufacturers to cut corners and produce some thermal paper with small safety indicators, you should also pay attention to self-prevention, do not contact thermal paper for a long time, and clean your hands after using thermal paper, just in case.

4. Other precautions

Note the batch and shelf life of the paper: there may be small differences between different batches of paper, and attention should be paid to distinguish when using. At the same time, attention should be paid to the shelf life of the paper and the use of expired paper should be avoided.

Keep out of reach of children: Color heat-sensitive labels should be placed out of reach of children to avoid ingestion or other accidents.

In summary, when using color thermal label paper, you need to pay attention to the storage environment, printing Settings and use, safety and health, and some other details. Only by doing this can we ensure the normal use of color thermal label paper and the good performance of printing effect.
