Why Near Edge Ribbons?
Near edge (corner-edge) printheads require specialized ribbon coatings and backcoats for instant release and optimal energy transfer at the print edge. Compared to flat-head formulations, near edge ribbons provide:
- High-speed performance with crisp barcodes and sharp text
- Excellent transfer to a wide range of coated papers and synthetics
- Durability options from wax/resin (balanced) to pure resin (maximum resistance)
