Different grades of ink react in contrasting ways, depending on the substrate being printed onto - some grades don't perform well on certain substrates.
Rough papers (vellum and uncoated)
Coated papers / tags (semi-gloss and printed)
Full-gloss papers / tags
Synthetics (plastics)
Textiles & fabrics
Medical papers
Packaging films

The ink used in different grades have varying properties, use the sliders below to help narrow the remaining grades.
Hover over a property for a brief description.
Print SensitivityHow reactive the ribbon is to heat, and so how much energy is required by the printer.
Heat ResistanceHow resistant to heat the final print is.
Abrasion ResistanceHow well the print handles abrasion, the physical durability of the print.
Solvent ResistanceHow resistant the print is against solvent abuse.
Substrate AdaptabilityHow well the print adheres to a variety of label types or other substrates.
Any grade of thermal transfer ink is one of three types. Select properties can be roughly attributed to each of the types of ink.
