What Is Thermal Paper?
Thermal paper is a special type of heat-sensitive paper used in thermal printers to produce high-quality prints. It does not require ink or toner; instead, it reacts to heat from the printer’s thermal head to produce sharp, high-quality prints. It is widely used in POS systems, receipts, shipping labels, medical charts, and banking transactions due to its fast and cost-effective printing process.
How Does Thermal Paper Work?
Thermal paper is coated with a chemical layer that reacts to heat. When the printer’s thermal print head applies heat, the coating changes color (usually black) to create text, images, or barcodes.
