    A thermal printer Bills and receipts are typically printed on thermal paper. [1]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.

  3. Thermal copier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_Copier

    The thermo-sensitive paper is actually feed between the thermal head and the platen. The copier, while scanning the original, sends an electric current to some selected heating elements of the thermal head, which generate heat. The heated elements correspond to the black areas of the original and, being pressed against the copy paper, make the ...

    This is called thermal printing and was used in older model fax machines and is used in most shop till receipt printers. This is called direct thermal. This is called direct thermal. More complex is thermal transfer printing that melts print off a ribbon and onto the sheet of paper.

  5. 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.

  6. Thermal paper - Wikipedia

    The printer essentially consists of a transport mechanism which drags the paper across a thermal dot matrix print head. The (very small) dots of the head heat up very quickly to imprint a dot, then cool equally quickly. The picture shows two thermal paper rolls with red alert lines to remind the merchant to replace the roll.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printer_(computing)

    In computing, a printer is a peripheral machine which makes a durable representation of graphics or text, usually on paper. [1] While most output is human-readable, bar code printers are an example of an expanded use for printers. [2] Different types of printers include 3D printers, inkjet printers, laser printers, and thermal printers. [3]
