• Excellent sensitivity and receptor multi-compatibility
• Very good printing quality at very high speed and high level of blackness
• Very high resistance to smudge

APR® 700 combines a multi receptor compatibility with good level of performance, especially in terms of speed. This high versatility allows it to fulfil the requirements of many applications.
The ink provides excellent printing quality of all types of barcodes, very small text, large characters and logos, at a blackness up to 2.1 (ODR).
The ribbon structure allows printing on various kinds of receptors, such as uncoated and coated papers and synthetics and even Tyvek®.
The printed image offers a good level of smudge resistance, heat resistance up to 100°C.
Those characteristics remain at speeds up to 1000 mm/s (40 ips) on flexible packaging applications and with 200, 300 and 600 DPI printheads, making this ribbon perfectly adapted either to the labelling market or the flexible packaging printing market.
