Zebra 4800 nastro transfer termico resina 450 m nero

The Zebra 4800 Resin thermal ribbon is a black, 450 m long and 17.4 cm wide ribbon formulated for high-density thermal transfer printing. It is designed to produce sharp, durable barcodes, text and graphics on compatible label materials. The resin composition improves resistance to abrasion, solvents and chemicals, delivering prints that maintain legibility and scannability in demanding environments across logistics, retail and industrial manufacturing.

Advantages

The resin ribbon provides superior scratch and solvent resistance compared with wax and wax/resin alternatives, resulting in longer-lasting prints. Its consistent ribbon formulation and width support reliable print quality across long runs, reducing the need for reprints. The black ink yields high contrast on recommended label materials, improving barcode readability and reducing scanning errors.

Suitable for

• Durable product and asset labels in manufacturing
• Shipping and logistics labels exposed to abrasion and chemicals
• Retail price tags and inventory labels requiring long-term legibility
• Barcode labels and tracking tags used in harsh environments

Key specifications

• Ribbon type: resin thermal transfer
• Length: 450 m
• Width: 174 mm (17.4 cm)
• Colour: black
• Compatibility: designed for use with thermal transfer printers that accept 174 mm wide ribbons
• Print characteristics: high-density, scratch- and chemical-resistant output

How to use

Install the ribbon in a compatible thermal transfer printer following the printer manufacturer's instructions for ribbon orientation and tension. Use label stock recommended for resin ribbons to achieve optimal adhesion and resistance; typically this includes synthetic materials and certain coated papers. Configure printer settings (print speed, darkness/heat) to match media and application requirements, and run a test print to verify barcode readability and print density before full production.

Recommendations

Store the ribbon in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and high humidity. For durable results, pair the resin ribbon with suitable synthetic label materials and calibrate printer settings for the chosen media. Regularly inspect printheads and clean them according to the printer manufacturer's guidance to maintain consistent print quality.
