【Voltage Compatibility】
When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction.
【Plug Type】
Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type).
Please use a conversion adapter if necessary.
【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】
A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements.
A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage.
Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product.
【Liability】
We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer.

★[Product Overview] Thermal transfer ribbon (outer ink) for thermal printers, applicable to popular thermal transfer printers (TT) such as SATO, ZEBRA, Datamax, POSTEK, Brother, TOSHIBA, Panasonic, GODEX, Fargo, Argox, TSC, NEX, etc. Ink ribbons for thermal transfer printers (thermal ribbons) have diversified market needs as applications expand, such as label printers, tag printers, and card printers. Ink ribbons can be divided into wax-based, semi-resin-based, and resin-based, depending on the blending ratio of the materials used and the structure of the layers. We carry a variety of ink ribbons (thermal transfer ribbons and thermal ribbons) for thermal transfer printers such as label printers, tag printers, and card printers. We offer ribbons that are ideal for each purpose, such as wax-based ribbons and resin-based ribbons, depending on the use of labels and tags. Please refer to the combination of label base material and ink ribbon when purchasing.
★ [How thermal transfer ink ribbon works] When heat is transmitted from the thermal head of a thermal transfer printer, only the characters and barcode parts of the ink ribbon melt and are transferred to paper such as tags and labels, allowing them to be printed. The appropriate ink ribbon will vary depending on the printer's performance, the type of paper used for tags and labels, the period of use, and the location of use. In order to maintain high quality printing, it is important to select an ink ribbon that is appropriate for the intended use, label substrate, and printer characteristics.
- [Wax-based ribbon] Characteristics: Ink composition with wax as the main ingredient, mainly single-layer composition. Although it has poor scratch resistance and printing resistance, it can be used on all types of paper, including high-quality paper and other rough papers, and is characterized by its low cost. Applications: Various labels/tags, price tags/labels, logistics management labels, inventory management labels, etc. Paper: High quality paper, coated paper, cast coated paper, various tags.
- [Semi-resin type ribbon (wax resin type)] Features: Ink composition with resin as the main component, many of which have a multi-layer composition that combines the transferability of wax and the resistance of resin, and are used for general purposes. It has excellent high speed and scratch resistance, and the printing quality is high precision and high quality. Applications: Logistics management labels, inventory management labels, manufacturing process management labels, medical testing labels, etc. Paper: High quality paper, coated paper, cast coated paper, synthetic paper, various films, various tag papers, etc.
- [Resin-based ribbon] Characteristics: The ink composition is mainly resin, and many of them are multi-layered. The most important feature of resin ribbon is its printing resistance, but it is compatible with synthetic paper, film, etc., and is not suitable for tag and label paper that lacks smoothness. It has excellent scratch resistance, solvent resistance, heat resistance, and high printing resistance. Applications: FA process control labels, automobile parts control labels, medical specimen control labels, various cards. Paper: coated paper, various tag papers, synthetic paper, PET labels, various films, etc.
★[Important Notice] *Please store the ribbon in a ventilated environment to avoid moisture and exposure that will affect the quality and printing effect of the ribbon. *We always strive to provide services that satisfy our customers. If you have any problems or concerns about the product when using it, please feel free to contact us and we will do our best to solve your problem.
Thermal transfer ink ribbons (outer ink) for thermal printers Ink ribbons for thermal transfer printers (thermal ribbons) have diversified market needs as applications expand, including label printers, tag printers, and card printers.

Ink ribbons can be divided into wax-based, semi-resin-based, and resin-based, depending on the blending ratio of the materials used and the structure of the layers. Please refer to the combination of label base material and ink ribbon when purchasing. ●Wax-based ribbon Wax-based ribbons are highly versatile and are widely used, allowing high-sensitivity and high-speed printing on general labels. Applications: Various labels/tags, price tags/labels, logistics management labels, inventory management labels, etc. Paper: High quality paper, coated paper, cast coated paper, various tags. ●Semi-resin ribbon (wax resin) Semi-resin (wax resin) ribbon is more durable than wax ribbon, and can provide high-definition and high-quality printing. Applications: Logistics management labels, inventory management labels, manufacturing process management labels, medical testing labels, etc. Paper: high quality
Paper, coated paper, cast coated paper, synthetic paper, various films, various tag papers, etc. ●Resin-based ribbons have a resin-based ink composition, and are used depending on the application, such as ``chemical resistant'', ``heat resistant'', ``oil resistant'', and ``solvent resistant'', with good durability of printed images. Applications: FA process control labels, automobile parts control labels, medical specimen control labels, various cards. Paper: coated paper, various tag papers, synthetic paper, PET labels, various films, etc.
