rillprint Thermal Transfer Ribbon Wax-Resin 110 mm x 450 m black for Zebra ZT220 / TLP 2746 – pack of 5

rillprint Thermal Transfer Ribbon Wax-Resin 110 mm x 450 m black is a thermal transfer ribbon formulated from a wax-resin blend for improved print quality and durability. Intended for use with Zebra ZT220 and TLP 2746 series printers, this product is supplied as a pack of five rolls to support longer uninterrupted printing cycles. The wax-resin formulation offers a balance between sharp barcode and text definition and resistance to smudging and light abrasion compared with standard wax ribbons.

Advantages

The wax-resin chemistry provides sharper edges on barcodes and crisp text while increasing scratch and fade resistance relative to pure wax ribbons. The 110 mm width and 450 m length per roll reduce the frequency of ribbon changes during high-volume label runs. Supplied as a five-roll pack, the set is convenient for continuous operations and lowers handling downtime in logistics, retail point-of-sale, and light manufacturing environments.

Suitable for

• Printing shipping labels, barcode labels and product identification tags.
• Use in Zebra ZT220 and TLP 2746 thermal transfer printers.
• Environments where moderate abrasion resistance and legible barcodes are required (warehousing, retail, distribution).
• High-volume or continuous printing workflows where fewer roll changes are desirable.

When it may not be suitable

This wax-resin ribbon is not formulated for heavy-duty outdoor exposure where prolonged UV, chemicals, or extreme abrasion are expected. For applications requiring maximum heat, solvent or industrial abrasion resistance, a full resin ribbon or specialist media should be considered. Also ensure the ribbon width and length are compatible with your printer model before purchase.

Key specifications

• Ribbon type: wax-resin thermal transfer formulation.
• Color: black for high contrast printing.
• Width: 110 mm.
• Length per roll: 450 m.
• Pack quantity: 5 rolls.
• Suitable print media: paper and synthetic labels compatible with wax-resin ribbons.

How to use

Install the ribbon on the thermal transfer printer according to the Zebra ZT220 or TLP 2746 user manual, ensuring the ink side faces the label and the roll is properly seated to provide even tension. Perform a test print to verify print darkness and barcode readability; adjust printer darkness or speed settings as needed for optimal results. Replace rolls when the ribbon is exhausted and store spare rolls in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve print performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm compatibility with your printer model (Zebra ZT220 or TLP 2746) and required ribbon width.
• Check label material: paper or suitable synthetics for wax-resin ribbons.
• Evaluate required durability: choose a full resin ribbon if heavy abrasion, chemicals, or outdoor exposure are expected.
• Consider inventory needs and whether a five-roll pack fits your consumption rate.

Usage recommendations

For reliable barcode readability and reduced downtime, use this wax-resin ribbon with clean printheads, appropriate printer settings (adjust darkness/speed), and labels approved for thermal transfer printing. Store unopened rolls flat in original packaging at room temperature to maintain shelf life.
