Thermal Printer Controller

A thermal printer is a type of printer that uses heat-sensitive paper and an electric heater to print text and graphics. Basically, it’s a normal printer but the paper it uses is heat sensitive. You cannot use normal plain papers with this as it will not print anything on it if you do so. So after knowing what it exactly is, now we move onto how does a thermal printer works?

Working mechanism of Thermal Printer Controller :

The working mechanism of a thermal printer has four major components: the thermal head, transfer roller, platen roller, and gear assembly. The thermal head contains two metal plates and requires no ink or ribbon because it heats up to leave an image on the paper. The paper is wound around the transfer roller and wrapped in such a way on the platen roller. When you send a print command, it will move the platen roller forward to press the thermal head against the paper over the full width of print.

Finally, you see that there are gears inside this printer. They make sure that everything moves as per our instructions sent via software/hardware. The data is used by the printer’s controller board which moves the hinged parts including gears using electromagnetic coils or stepping motors.

Why to use Thermal Printer Controller?

1. Lower maintenance cost: With fewer moving parts, these printers are more durable than dot-matrix and inkjet types.

2. Limited environmental impact: Although the technology itself has harmful byproducts like heat energy, it does not include ink cartridges or toxic chemicals like many other printer technologies do.

3. Available in both direct thermal (heat) and thermal transfer (no heat) versions: In most cases, you can find one type of printer in another version that’s why we have explained all advantages of both types!

4. A wide selection of printable materials: Thermal printing is flexible enough to use on several different kinds of packaging labels including paper, plastic sheets like polyester or polycarbonate but also on a metal or a glass surface.

5. Fast and efficient: It prints at a very high speed, it is compact in size, and can print up to 5-6 full-size page labels per minute depending on the model you choose and the resolution of the print.
