Thermal printer paper is a special type of paper designed for use in a thermal printer, which uses the application of heat to produce images and information. Unlike traditional printers, thermal printers don’t require ink, toner or ribbon. The paper is coated with a chemical that changes colour when exposed to heat, allowing the printer to produce accurate prints without smudging or fading There are two types of heating paper: direct heating and convective heating in. Direct heating paper is able to heat up and is used in temporary applications, such as receipts, stamps, and postcards, where the printing is exposed to environmental conditions. Thermal printer paper is popular in industries such as retail, logistics, and healthcare, where fast, reliable and cost-effective printing is critical for services such as on-site receipts groceries, barcode labels and medical records
