Good to know

For best results, use with flat-head thermal transfer printers and adjust heat settings according to the substrate. Wax ribbons are not recommended for synthetic materials like polyester or polypropylene, which require resin or wax/resin ribbons. Store in a cool, dry place within the specified temperature range to maintain ribbon performance. The ribbon length and roll diameter vary by SKU; check your printer's ribbon capacity before ordering.
