Frequently Asked Questions
Can A4 thermal paper run in any A4 printer?
No. It is made for compatible direct thermal printers, not ordinary laser or inkjet printers. Please provide the printer brand, model and feed configuration before ordering.
How is A4 thermal paper different from normal copy paper?
Thermal paper has a heat-sensitive coating that forms an image without ink or toner. Copy paper is uncoated office paper that requires laser toner or inkjet ink.
