Thermal transfer label ribbon Capture Ship-label 102×192 mm core 25 mm, model 101148

Capture Ship-label 102×192 Core 25 (model 101148) is a thermal transfer ribbon formulated for reliable printing of shipping and parcel labels sized 102 × 192 mm. Supplied on a 25 mm core, the ribbon is intended for use with compatible thermal transfer printers to create clear, durable text and barcodes used in logistics and parcel tracking. The ribbon supports high-contrast printing to improve scan rates and label readability over the transit lifecycle.

Advantages

The ribbon delivers consistent print density and sharp barcode edges, minimizing misreads during automated scanning. Its wax-resin formulation balances print quality and smudge resistance to withstand handling, adhesives and short-term exposure to moisture. The 25 mm core format allows easy installation in printers that accept narrow cores, reducing downtime during ribbon changes.

Suitable for

• Printing 102 × 192 mm shipping and parcel labels
• Logistics and warehouse label applications
• Barcode and tracking label production for parcel carriers
• Environments with frequent label handling and transport

Key specifications

• Print technology: thermal transfer
• Intended label size: 102 × 192 mm
• Core diameter: 25 mm
• Ribbon type: wax-resin (optimized for shipping labels)
• Suitable for printing high-contrast text and barcodes

How to use

Install the ribbon on a compatible thermal transfer printer following the printer manufacturer’s instructions for a 25 mm core. Load label media sized 102 × 192 mm and perform a media alignment and printhead calibration if available. Print test labels to confirm correct darkness, contrast and barcode scannability, then adjust print darkness settings if necessary. Replace the ribbon when print quality degrades or when the ribbon roll is expended.

Usage recommendations

Store unopened ribbons in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. For optimal durability, use compatible label stock and ensure printhead pressure and printer settings match the ribbon type. Avoid prolonged exposure to solvents or abrasive surfaces to preserve barcode readability during transit.
