Honeywell 1-091646-01 Thermotransfer ribbons TMX 2020 / HP04 wax/resin 110 mm 76 m outside black content_copy

The thermal transfer ribbon from Honeywell, type TMX 2020 / HP04, is a consumable for use in thermal transfer printers in the office equipment sector, particularly for POS systems. It is used to produce high-quality, durable labels and markings by transferring ink onto label material under heat. The ribbon is specifically designed for printers with a flat-head print head, ensuring even and precise print transfer. The colored side of the ribbon is on the outside, which requires correct installation in the printer to ensure print quality.

Applications
This thermal transfer ribbon is used in commercial and industrial environments where high print quality and label durability are required. Typical applications include shipping logistics, inventory management, warehouse management, and labeling of products and packaging. The combination of wax and resin content in the ribbon material ensures good adhesion to various substrates, especially paper and synthetic label materials. Its use in POS systems enables the creation of price tags, product labels, and shipping labels with high readability and durability.

Features and Specifications in Detail
The ribbon has a roll width of 110 mm and a length of 76 meters, enabling high efficiency in label production. The core width is also 110 mm, with the core having a diameter of 12.7 mm. These dimensions are standardized and fit most thermal transfer printers in the POS sector. The ribbon color is black, ensuring clear and high-contrast print output. The colored side is positioned on the outside, which must be considered during installation in the printer to ensure correct print transfer.

Technology Explained Simply
Thermal transfer printing works by heating the print head, which transfers the ink ribbon onto the label material. The ribbon used consists of a wax/resin mix, providing a good balance between print durability and adhesion. Wax components ensure a smooth print surface and fast drying, while resin components increase resistance to abrasion, moisture, and light. The combination of wax and resin makes the ribbon particularly suitable for applications where labels are subject to certain stresses, such as in retail or logistics.

Compatibility and Accessories
The thermal transfer ribbon is specifically developed for printers of type TMX 2020 / HP04 and is compatible with printers using a flat-head print head. It is not intended for printers with other print head geometries. Use in other printers may result in insufficient print quality or damage to the print head. The packaging contains 12 rolls per box, enabling cost-effective procurement for businesses.

Installation and Mounting
Installation of the ribbon involves inserting the roll into the printer, ensuring the colored side faces outward. The roll is placed onto the 12.7 mm core and inserted into the appropriate holder. Correct alignment is crucial for even print transfer. The user manual of the respective printer should be consulted for correct installation. No special tools or additional components are required for installation.

Operational Advantages
The thermal transfer ribbon offers high print speed and long label lifespan. The wax and resin combination ensures good resistance to mechanical stress, moisture, and light. The black color enables clear and high-contrast print output, which remains readable even under low lighting conditions. Packaging with 12 rolls per box reduces the number of orders and lowers logistics costs. The standard roll dimensions simplify storage and replacement in operation.
