Can thermal transfer inks be mixed with different brands?

Thermal transfer ink is one of the indispensable materials in the thermal transfer industry. It is a very important thermal transfer consumable. The quality of thermal transfer ink directly affects the effect of thermal transfer products. The cost of thermal transfer inks is slightly higher than other conventional inks, so some customers may consider combining some of the remaining ink with the newly purchased inks based on cost savings and ink. However, it is often possible that the newly bought ink and the remaining ink are not the same brand. Then the problem arises. Can different brands of thermal transfer ink be mixed?


Different manufacturers of thermal transfer inks, different brands can not be mixed. Here is a brief introduction to the reasons why you can't mix and match.

1. The composition of the thermal transfer ink is different


Different heat transfer inks have different particle sizes, that is, the diameters are different. The smaller the diameter of the particles, the higher the fineness, so the price is relatively higher. It is often said that the imported thermal transfer ink is heated by the heat transfer machine, and the image is clear and the color reproduction is high. This is also the advantage of the imported thermal transfer ink. If two different diameters of ink are mixed, the diameter of the particles will vary, which will directly lead to printer blockage or even ink breakage.

Everyone knows that heat transfer inks are prone to cause printer jams and need to be used or cleaned frequently, so the mixing of two different brands of thermal transfer inks is more likely to cause this.

2. Thermal transfer inks vary in density


This can happen if the thermal transfer ink density is different and delamination occurs. As a result, the thermal transfer ink is layered, which will seriously affect the color effect and professional effect of the printed image.

3. The composition of the thermal transfer ink is different


The color composition of the thermal transfer ink is inconsistent. If two thermal transfer inks of different color components are used in combination, severe color cast phenomenon occurs, causing the color of the transferred image to deviate from the original image.


Based on the above analysis, different brands of thermal transfer inks can not be mixed. If mixed use will cause many problems, there are 1. The printer plugs the print head.2. The color cast is severe. 3. The ink condenses. 4. The ink appears to be delaminated. These conditions can cause the quality of the printed image to directly lead to the quality of the transfer effect. These are common problems and other problems may occur. Because it is important to remember that different brands of thermal transfer inks cannot be used. For mixed use, you need to use the same manufacturer's thermal transfer ink from the same manufacturer. If you change the ink of other brands, it is best to replace the new supply system, so it will not cause great damage to the printer.
