Barcode Printer

A barcode printer is a printer designed to produce barcode labels which can be attached to other objects. Barcode printers use either direct thermal or thermal transfer techniques to apply ink to labels. Thermal transfer printers use ink ribbons to apply the barcode directly into the label, while thermal transfer printers use heat to blacken the barcode onto the label. Many businesses find that a flexibility to incorporate aspects of product packaging in-house are absolutes of their operations. Label Printers and Barcode Printers are of particular interest, allowing for ad hoc print runs, varying volumes and less cost-inclusive changes in production.
