Thermal printers are printers that rely on heat to develop color. Thermal printing (or direct thermal printing) is a digital printing process that is produced by passing paper with a thermochromic coating (often called thermal paper) through a print head consisting of tiny electrical heating elements Print the image. The coating turns black in the heated area, creating the image.
Most thermal printers are monochrome (black and white), although some two-color designs exist.
Usually divided into thermal label and thermal receipt printer, the difference is that the paper used is different, but usually it is single-sided color development (the side with color development layer)
Thermal Label Paper:
Thermal receipt paper
The composition of Thermal Printer:
Thermal printers usually contain at least the following components:
Hardware parts:
Thermal head: Generates heat to form images on paper
Platen: A rubber roller that moves the paper
Spring: applies pressure to hold the paper and printhead together
Motherboard: Provides electronics drivers
Power supply: At the same time, thermal printers have high voltage requirements, and if the voltage is not reached, it may not work properly
