APR®600

  • Excellent sensitivity and receptor multi-compatibility
  • Very good printing quality at high speed and sharping of 90 degree barcodes
  • Very good resistance to smudge

APR®600 combines a multi receptor compatibility with a good level of performances. This high versatility allows it to fulfill the requirements of many applications.

The ink provides an excellent printing quality of all types of barcodes, very small text, large characters, and logos, at a blackness above 1.6 (ODR).

The ribbon structure allows printing on various kinds of receptors, such as uncoated papers, coated papers and synthetics. The printed image offers a good level of smudge resistance, and heat resistance up to 100°C (212°F).

Those characteristics remain at speeds up to 600 mm/s (24 ips), and with 200, 300 and 600 DPI printheads, making this ribbon perfectly adapted either to the labeling market or the flexible packaging printing market.

APR®600 features outstanding backcoat technology ensuring excellent printhead protection, no clogging and prevents static build up.
