Wax Resin Blend Ribbon 8550 - PN 203713-XXX
Model 8550 was specifically developed to cover the widest possible range of flood coated label applications. It performs
well on the various inks used on spot-coated and flood-coated labels, eliminating the tendency for the label to slip during
the printing process. Model 8550 eliminates the need for the use of thermal transfer varnishes on flood-coated labels,
thereby reducing the total label cost.
Formulated to provide excellent print quality at the highest T8000, T5000r/SL5000r, T4M/SL4M & T2N print speeds.
Provides premium durability and excellent print quality on RFID label stocks
