Hardware
The LabelWriter printer uses advanced thermal printing technology to print on specially treated
labels. This means you will never have to replace toner, ink cartridges, or a ribbon to print labels.
Direct thermal printing works by transferring heat from a thermal print head to specially treated
labels. The thermal print head contains a row of miniature heating elements that press against the
treated label. As a heating element touches the specially treated label, a thermal reaction causes the
specific point on the label to turn black.
