Thermal Transfer Overprinters

For manufacturers, retailers and consumers across the globe, looking at the label has become a way of life: expiration dates, best by dates, ingredients, nutritional data, bar codes, special instructions, dosage amounts, scanner codes.

Today, the packaging and wrapping of almost every product imparts important, imperative information. And that data must be clear and concise, legible and long-lasting.

PrintJet USA designs, develops and delivers high-performing, long-lasting thermal transfer overprinters (TTO printers) that produce high-quality, high-resolution bar codes, labels, coding information, and other data for thousands of products used by millions of people every day.

The durable, reliable, versatile thermal transfer overprinters supplied by PrintJet USA are expertly engineered, precisely manufactured and rigidly tested to meet your exacting specifications and complete your most challenging coding and labeling tasks. Speak to one of our specialists now!

What is Thermal Transfer Overprinting (TTO)?

Thermal transfer overprinting, or TTO, is a digital technology used to print information, data, dates and codes onto thin, flexible packaging materials such as film, pouches, and labels.

On a TTO printer, a ribbon is positioned between a print head and the material to be printed. The print head activates, the ribbon heated, and ink released. The ink sticks to the material, cools, and within microseconds, creates a permanent, high-resolution image of batch codes, date codes, fully compliant barcodes, or other data.

Leave Your Mark on Almost Anything Easily

PrintJet USA’s thermal transfer overprinters can create images on a wide variety of porous and non-porous materials:

  • Plastic
