2. Thermal-transfer printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal-transfer_printing

   Thermal-transfer printing is done by melting wax within the print heads of a specialized printer. The thermal-transfer print process utilises three main components: a non-movable print head, a carbon ribbon (the ink) and a substrate to be printed, which would typically be paper, synthetics, card or textile materials.

3. Thermal printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_printing

   Thermal printing (or direct thermal printing) is a digital printing process which produces a printed image by passing paper with a thermochromic coating, commonly known as thermal paper, over a print head consisting of tiny electrically heated elements. The coating turns black in the areas where it is heated, producing an image.

4. Dye-sublimation printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dye-sublimation_printing

   For small-format printing, inkjet has also become the dominant technology, though special dye-sublimation transfer laser printers are also available. [ 6 ] In order to transfer the image from the paper to the substrate, it requires a heat press machine process that is a combination of time, temperature, and pressure.

5. Thermal paper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_paper

   In the late 1980s and early 1990s, thermal transfer (distinct from direct thermal, and stable), laser printing, electrophotography, and, to a lesser extent, inkjet printing began to take away industrial and warehouse barcode applications due to better stability and durability of prints. Direct thermal made a strong comeback with point-of-sale ...

6. Transfer paper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_paper

   Transfer paper is a thin piece of paper coated with wax and pigment. Often, an ink-jet or other printer is used to print the image on the transfer paper. A heat press can transfer the image onto clothing, canvas, or other surface. Transfer paper is used in creating iron-ons. Transfer papers can also be used for the application of rhinestones to ...

7. Thermographic printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermographic_printing

   Example of thermographic printing. The uneven quality of the text is a result of the process and easily differentiates thermographic printing from engraving. Thermographic printing refers to two types of printing, both of which rely on heat to create the letters or images on a sheet of paper.
