When printing self-adhesive copper plate label paper, the following consumables are usually required:
1. Self-adhesive copperplate label paper
Material characteristics: Self-adhesive copperplate label paper is widely used for its excellent printing effect and adhesion properties. Coated paper has smooth surface, strong ink absorption ability, suitable for high-quality graphic printing.
Specification selection: Self-adhesive copper plate label paper has a variety of specifications to choose from, such as different sizes (such as 50mm×30mm, 100mm×70mm, etc.) and roll or sheet form to meet different printing needs.
2. Carbon belt
Role: Carbon tape is a key consumable in thermal transfer printing technology, which transfers the toner to the label paper to form patterns and text by contacting and heating the self-adhesive label paper.
Type selection: The carbon strip can be divided into wax based carbon strip, mixed based carbon strip and resin based carbon strip according to its composition and characteristics. Different types of carbon belts are suitable for different printing needs and environmental conditions. For example, the all-resin-based carbon strip has excellent wear resistance, scratch resistance and chemical solvent resistance, which is suitable for long-term outdoor use or where high-definition printing is required.
3. Printer cartridges or toners (for inkjet or laser printers)
Inkjet printers: Use ink cartridges as consumables, ink cartridges are filled with ink, and the ink is sprayed onto the label paper through the nozzle to form patterns and text.
Laser printer: Using the toner cartridge as a consumable, the toner cartridge is loaded with toner, and the toner is transferred to the label paper through laser scanning and electrostatic adsorption. The toner cartridge is divided into one type of drum powder and the drum powder separation type, and the user can replace the toner or the whole toner cartridge according to the need.
4. Other auxiliary consumables
Cleaning supplies: such as cleaning paper, cleaning cloth, etc., used to regularly clean the printer's print head and other key components to maintain print quality and extend printer life.
Label stripper: For users who print a large number of self-adhesive labels, the label stripper can automatically peel off the printed label paper and the backing paper, improving work efficiency.
In summary, the main consumables for printing self-adhesive copperplate label paper include self-adhesive copperplate label paper, carbon tape, and ink cartridges or toner cartridges for specific types of printers. In addition, some auxiliary consumables may be needed to keep the printer in good working condition. When selecting consumables, you are advised to match and select them based on your printing requirements and printer model.
