Clean Start® Thermal Transfer Ribbons
Imagine a REVOLUTIONARY PRINTHEAD CLEANER built right into your bar code ribbon. A clean printhead prevents costly problems. Did you know that your thermal transfer printer OEM recommends regular preventative maintenance as a way to protect against premature printhead failure and poor print quality? Unfortunately, less than 20% of printer owners actually follow this advice - even though the printhead is their most expensive consumable and causes the most print-related problems.
Clean Start® makes printhead maintenance hassle-free. Clean Start® is an innovative, patented printhead cleaner that's built right into the ribbon. It removes debris before it builds up on the printhead. Using our Clean Start® Thermal Transfer Ribbons will help you be on your way to longer printhead life, more readable scans and peak image quality. This means more SAVINGS to your bottom line.
