After printing, is the surface of Thermal Paper Supermarket Labels smooth? Will it affect writing or pasting?

Publish Time: 2024-10-17
Thermal Paper Supermarket Labels play an important role in the commodity identification and management of modern supermarkets, and the surface characteristics after printing, especially whether the surface is smooth and the impact on writing and pasting, are issues worthy of in-depth discussion.

Generally speaking, after printing, high-quality Thermal Paper Supermarket Labels usually have a certain degree of smoothness on the surface. This smoothness mainly depends on the material and printing process of thermal paper. High-quality thermal paper has a uniform surface coating. After printing, the toner or pigment can be evenly attached to the surface of the paper, thus forming a relatively smooth surface.

From the writing point of view, a moderately smooth surface is more advantageous for writing with ordinary ballpoint pens, markers or fountain pens. The smooth surface allows the pen tip to slide smoothly on it, reducing the resistance during writing, making the handwriting clearer and more coherent. However, if the surface is too smooth, it may cause the ink to adhere to the paper surface and easily cause smudges or blurred handwriting. In addition, some special writing tools, such as pencils, may not write well on overly smooth surfaces because the friction between the pencil lead and the paper is small, making it difficult to leave clear marks.

In terms of pasting performance, the surface smoothness of the label after printing will also have a certain impact. A smoother surface may pose certain challenges to the adhesion of glue. If the glue has insufficient affinity with the paper surface, it may cause loose pasting and the label to easily fall off the product. On the other hand, if the glue is too sticky, when the label is torn off, it may cause glue residue on the surface of the product due to the close combination of glue and smooth surface, affecting the appearance and sales of the product.

In order to balance surface smoothness with writing and pasting performance, manufacturers usually carry out a series of process optimization and material selection when producing Thermal Paper Supermarket Labels. They adjust the coating formula on the paper surface to ensure good adaptability to ink and glue while providing a certain smoothness. In addition, different application scenarios may have different requirements for the surface characteristics of the label. For example, for some product labels that need to be stored for a long time and are often rubbed, more attention may be paid to the wear resistance and adhesion firmness of the label; while for some products that require customers to mark or record on the label, the convenience of writing is more important.

In summary, the surface smoothness of Thermal Paper Supermarket Labels after printing has an important impact on the writing and pasting performance. When selecting and using Thermal Paper Supermarket Labels, supermarkets and suppliers need to comprehensively consider the characteristics of the product, the use environment, and the requirements for the label function to ensure that the label can meet the needs of practical applications. At the same time, with the continuous advancement of technology, it is believed that the future Thermal Paper Supermarket Labels will further optimize the surface characteristics on the basis of maintaining good printing effects, and provide better solutions for product identification and management.
