Direct Thermal is a convenient and cost-effective method of printing labels, Unlike Thermal Transfer printing, it doesn’t require a ribbon, so they are even easier to use.

The print is formed by exposing the label surface to heat from the thermal printhead, which creates a chemical reaction and brings out the print. Direct Thermal is mostly used for despatch labels, addressing and short-use barcoding, or for any application where the print does not need to be very hard-wearing or long-lasting.
