TSC 8050-SWX - 450 m - 16,5 cm - zwart - was

Printing labels on coated or uncoated paper often leads to smudging and fading when using standard ribbons. The TSC 8050-SWX wax thermal transfer ribbon solves this by delivering crisp, durable prints that resist everyday handling. With a generous 450-meter length and 165 mm width, it minimizes roll changes and keeps high-volume printing running smoothly.

Who is it for

This ribbon is ideal for warehouses, retail stores, and logistics operations that need reliable, cost-effective printing for shipping labels, retail tags, and inventory management. It works with TSC thermal transfer printers and other compatible industrial printers using a 1-inch core.
