Questions

Common questions

What is the difference between direct thermal and thermal transfer?

Direct thermal printers use heat-sensitive paper and do not require ink or ribbons. Thermal transfer printers use a ribbon to melt ink onto the label for more durable results.

Do I need a computer to use a label maker?

Handheld label makers often have built-in keyboards for standalone use. Bluetooth models allow you to design and print labels directly from a smartphone app without a computer.

What does 300 DPI mean for a label printer?

DPI stands for dots per inch and measures print resolution. A 300 DPI printer produces sharper text and cleaner barcodes than standard 203 DPI models.
