Toshiba AG6E Wax/Resin Ribbon for Near-Edge Printers
Toshiba AG6E: More Prints, Less Downtimes, Less Wastes – Multi-Purpose Wax/Resin Ribbon for Corner / Near-Edge Printers
The Toshiba AG6E is a multi-purpose wax/resin product that is very close to Toshiba’s most popular ribbon type for near edge printers (AG2) in terms of performance. Its highly versatile performance fulfills the needs of most standard applications. A major benefit is its capability to propose longer length ribbons in the same space available in the printer, leading to less ribbon changes, less downtimes, and less waste generated. It lays down a clear and sharp printed image on most label stocks, from uncoated and glossy to synthetics. Withstanding heat up to 100°C (212°F) with a blackness of 1.9 (ODR), the AG6E will give good levels of mechanical resistance and, as with all Toshiba ribbon products, its superior backcoating will prevent static build-up and clogging, offering the very best in printhead protection.
