Media General
Self-adhesive labels are backed with silicon-coated backing
paper, from which the label is removed. There are different
types of adhesive:
• Tickets are printed on non-adhesive paper, which means
there is no need for backing paper.
• Both labels and tickets are available as rolls or as fan-folded
continuous paper tracks. Fan-folded labels and tickets are
supplied in boxes, in which labels are stored before passing
through the printer.
• Perforations are used to divide labels and tickets. This
makes them easier to tear after printing.
• In order to start and stop the media during the print process,
the printer is equipped with a detector that senses any gaps
or black marks.

we recommend you read Datamax’s ‘CONSUMABLES’

MP Nova4 DT, Nova6 DT & Nova8 DT
The MP Nova DT printers use direct thermal media, such as
labels, paper and tickets.
Direct thermal media is made of special paper that reacts to
heat and printouts are often black. Different paper qualities are
available.
MP Nova4 TT, Nova6 TT
The MP Nova TT uses a special ink ribbon, which transfers ink
to media (receiver) when subjected to heat. Labels printed
using the thermal transfer method shows a greater resistance to
heat and UV-light.
