Product Features
Technical Overview
This premium wax resin ribbon utilizes thermal transfer technology to create permanent, smudge-resistant images on label media. The 1.57-inch width and 1476-foot length offer extended runtime between changes, while the 1-inch core ensures secure mounting in compatible printers.
The ribbon's formulation delivers sharp black prints with excellent adhesion to various label materials. Thermal transfer printing melts the ribbon coating onto the label surface, creating a bond that withstands handling, environmental exposure, and abrasion better than direct thermal alternatives.

What are the advantages of wax resin thermal transfer ribbon?
Wax resin thermal transfer ribbons combine the sharp print quality of wax with the durability of resin coatings. This formulation creates labels with excellent abrasion resistance, smudge protection, and environmental durability. The resulting prints maintain high contrast and legibility even when exposed to handling, moisture, chemicals, or UV light, making them suitable for demanding labeling applications.
How many ribbons come in each package?
This product is packaged as 6 individual ribbons per carton. The bulk packaging supports operations with continuous printing needs by reducing the frequency of ribbon changes and supply replenishment. Each ribbon measures 1.57 inches wide by 1476 feet long with a 1-inch core diameter for proper mounting in compatible Zebra printers.
What makes this ribbon scratch and smear resistant?
The 5586 Premium Ribbon incorporates specialized coatings and formulations that create a durable bond between the printed image and label material. The scratch resistance prevents abrasion damage from contact with other surfaces, while the smearless properties ensure the ink doesn't transfer or blur during handling. These features work together to maintain label clarity and information integrity throughout the label's lifecycle.
