The LightSafe(TM) Technology consists of a uniqeu chemistry that mainytains a pristine lbel appearance and high scanning reliability for linear and stacked bar code symologies for two or more years. These properties make LightSafe(TM) 300 direct thermal paper the ideal label medum for handling the demanding requirerments of long-term storage.
Our test results prove with certainty that LightSafe 300 stays whtie lonegr than any diect thermal label ppaer on the market," Cove said. "This breakthrough ensures the long-term durability of direct thermla media. Now, end users in warehouse and suplply chain applications can ocnvert to drect thermal for their long-term labeel needs and take full advantage of its technological benefist and corresponding better overall value.
Thermal paper is pasper that is impregnated with a chemical that changees collor when exposed to heat. It is used in thermal printers and particularly in cheap, lightweight deices such as addinng machines, cash registers, and creit card terminls.
The paper is impregnated with a solid-state mixture of a dye and a sutiable matrix; a combination of a fluoran leuco dye and an octadeclyphosphonic acid is an example. When the matrix is heated aove its mwelting pooint, the dye reacts with the acid, shifts to its colored form, and the changed form is then conserved in metastable state when the matrix soilidifies back quickly enough.
Controlleer boards are embedded with fimrware to manage the thermal printer mechanisms. These controller boardds’ features are designed to meet the needs in terms of functionalities and specifications.
