Nastro Toshiba TEC AS1 110 mm x 270 m

The Toshiba TEC AS1 110mm x 270m printer ribbon is a pure resin thermal transfer ribbon engineered for flat head printers. Designed for use with compatible Toshiba label printers such as the B-452 and B-SA4 series, this black ribbon measures 110 mm in width and 270 m in length, delivering consistent, high-resolution printing for labels and tags. Its resin formulation provides strong adhesion to synthetic materials and helps produce clear, durable text and barcodes suitable for demanding environments.

Advantages

This pure resin ribbon offers excellent print quality with sharp text and high-density barcodes. It provides good mechanical resistance and outstanding scratch and solvent resistance, improving label longevity. The ribbon is resistant to high temperatures and is compatible with a wide range of synthetic label materials, ensuring reliable performance across different substrates. Available in colour options, the ribbon supports varied printing needs while maintaining consistent ribbon-to-media interaction.

Suitable for

• Durable barcode and serial number labels on synthetic materials
• Outdoor and warehouse labels exposed to abrasion and chemicals
• Product identification and asset tagging requiring long-lasting prints
• High-resolution text and graphics on polyester or polypropylene labels

How to use

Install the ribbon in the printer following the printer manufacturer's instructions for ribbon loading and threading. Use flat head thermal transfer print settings and choose print darkness and speed appropriate to the label material to achieve optimal print density and durability. Test a sample print and adjust printer settings if necessary to prevent smearing or excessive heat exposure. Replace the ribbon when print quality degrades or when the ribbon roll reaches its end.

Recommendations

For best results, pair the Toshiba TEC AS1 ribbon with compatible synthetic label stocks such as polyester or polypropylene and use recommended print settings for resin ribbons: moderate print speed and increased print darkness where durable, high-density marks are required. Store unused ribbons in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve print performance.
