ThermaMAX TMX3200 Ultra-Durable Thermal Transfer Printer Ribbon

Intermec ThermaMAX TMX3202 Ultra-Durable Thermal Transfer Ribbon

When paired with compatible labels, Intermec’s ThermaMAX TMX3202 ribbon generates extremely durable images that readily endure outdoor exposure to rain, snow, and ultraviolet light for three years or more. Its highly abrasion-resistant printed images survive extremely challenging environments where labels are subject to heavy wear. The ThermaMAX TMX3202 ribbon is ideally suited for label materials such as:

• Duratran II Gloss Polyester Label
• Duratran II Gloss Kapton Label

Better Together
Intermec media solutions have added advantages when paired with Intermec printers:

• Co-engineered printers and media ensure consistent print quality and performance.
• Thermal transfer printability allows on-demand generation of durable labels, eliminating high cost and inventory obsolescence associated with preprinting.
• When Intermec media is used exclusively with Intermec printers, the Free Printhead Replacement Program offers significant cost savings.
