2. Thermal paper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_paper

   The printer essentially consists of a transport mechanism which drags the paper across a thermal dot matrix print head. The (very small) dots of the head heat up very quickly to imprint a dot, then cool equally quickly. The picture shows two thermal paper rolls with red alert lines to remind the merchant to replace the roll. Most thermal papers ...

   A thermal printer Bills and receipts are typically printed on thermal paper. [1]Thermal printing (or direct thermal printing) is a digital printing process which produces a printed image by passing paper with a thermochromic coating, commonly known as thermal paper, over a print head consisting of tiny electrically heated elements.

   Thermal-transfer printing is done by melting wax within the print heads of a specialized printer. The thermal-transfer print process utilises three main components: a non-movable print head, a carbon ribbon (the ink) and a substrate to be printed, which would typically be paper, synthetics, card or textile materials.

   Several types of print mechanisms are also used, including laser and impact, but thermal printer mechanisms are perhaps the most common. There are two common types of thermal printer. [2] Direct thermal printers use heat sensitive paper (similar to thermal fax paper). Direct thermal labels tend to fade over time (typically 6 to 12 months); if ...
