Sony TR5080 Specialty Wax/Resin Ribbon

Sony TR5080 Specialty wax/resin ribbon 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 of the label to slip during the printing process. Sony TR5080 Ribbon eliminates the need for the use of thermal transfer varnishes on flood coated labels, thereby reducing the total label cost. Sony TR5080 Ribbon prints up to 12 inches per second with complete image integrity.
