The BSC PREFERRED THT116 is a thermal transfer ribbon sold in a case of 12, designed for use with thermal transfer label printing on Zebra, Sato, and Datamax brand printers. The ribbon features a Printhead Saver coating and an anti-static back coating that work together to extend printhead service life while reducing maintenance costs. It is engineered for high sensitivity, allowing operation at lower print temperatures and faster print speeds up to 12 inches per second (IPS). The result is dark, high-definition output including rotated and non-rotated barcodes, text, logos, and symbols. Print technicians and warehouse operations staff handling label printing systems are the primary installers and users of this ribbon.
The THT116 ribbon suits a wide range of thermal transfer label printing applications including inventory management, shipping and receiving, product identification, and compliance labeling. It is compatible with Zebra, Sato, and Datamax brand thermal transfer printers. The smudge-resistant, durable output makes it suitable for labels that must withstand handling in distribution, warehousing, and light industrial environments. The case quantity of 12 rolls supports continuous operation in higher-volume print environments.
Designed for use with thermal transfer labels on Zebra, Sato, and Datamax brand thermal transfer printers.
Ribbon loading should be performed by a trained print technician or operator familiar with the specific printer model in use. Power down the printer before replacing the ribbon to avoid printhead damage or static discharge. Consult the printer manufacturer's loading guide to ensure correct ribbon orientation and proper core alignment. Avoid touching the ribbon surface with bare hands, as skin oils can affect print quality and coating performance.
