Zebra 4.33" x 243' 5555 Desktop Wax/Resin Ribbon | Case of 12 Rolls

Zebra 4.33" x 243' 5555 Desktop Wax/Resin Ribbon provides reliable performance for creating durable, high-quality barcodes that maintain their clarity under harsh environmental conditions including moisture, abrasion, and chemical exposure. This standard wax/resin ink formulation addresses the common challenge of labels that fade or smear when exposed to moderate environmental stress delivering crisp, clear images on Zebra's coated paper and matte synthetic label stocks at speeds up to 6 inches per second. When your operations involve repeated wand-scanning, outdoor exposure, or contact with water and chemical solutions, this ribbon ensures your labels remain readable and scannable throughout their lifecycle. The balanced formulation provides excellent durability in harsh conditions including high temperatures and excessive moisture, making it perfect for chemical drum labeling, shelf labels, and pallet identification in demanding warehouse environments. With proven performance in applications requiring resistance to steam, alkali, and acid solutions, you get professional-quality prints that withstand the abrasion and friction of real-world handling without sacrificing print speed or clarity.
