Armor RL NEAR EDGE CSO APR600 114mmx600m Black (T45907IO)

Thermal transfer ribbon engineered for high-speed near-edge printers, delivering durable black prints on a wide range of label stocks. The ARMOR RL NEAR EDGE CSO APR600 uses a wax-resin formulation that provides excellent scratch and smudge resistance, ensuring crisp barcodes and text even in demanding logistics and warehousing environments. With a 114 mm width and 600 m length, this ribbon reduces changeovers and maximizes uptime for high-volume printing.

Advantages

The APR600 grade offers a balanced blend of print darkness and durability. Its coated side out (CSO) winding is specifically designed for near-edge thermal transfer printers, preventing ribbon wrinkle and ensuring consistent ink release. The wax-resin chemistry adheres well to coated paper, vellum, and synthetic materials like polypropylene, polyethylene, and PET, making it versatile for various labeling tasks. High resistance to common chemicals and abrasion keeps labels legible throughout the supply chain.
