Printing Technology

The QLn Series printers use the Direct Thermal method to

print human readible text, graphics and barcodes. It incorpo-

rates a sophisticated print engine for optimal printing under all

operational conditions.

Direct Thermal

Direct thermal printing uses heat to cause a chemical reac-

tion on specially treated media. This reaction creates a dark

mark wherever a heated element on the printhead comes in

contact with the media. Since the printing elements are ar-

ranged very densely at 203 d.p.i. (dots per inch) horizontal

and 200 d.p.i. vertical, highly legible characters and graphic

elements may be created a row at a time as the media is ad-

vanced past the printhead. This technology has the advantage

of simplicity, as there is no requirement for consumable sup-

plies such as ink or toner. However, since the media is sensi-

tive to heat, it will gradually loose legibility over long periods

of time, especially if exposed to environments with relatively

high temperatures.
