The Role of Thermal Printers in Electronic Commerce

    In recent years, the rise of electricity providers, more and more people for online shopping has been from the beginning of the attempt to the subsequent habit, become the ultimate dependence. It is precisely because the online shopping service with unparalleled convenience, so a little size of the electric business every day to face the huge number of commodity circulation and the resulting large number of bills!
    Net purchases of goods produced by the receipts are mainly bills, bills, etc., they have high speed and clarity requirements, therefore, thermal printer is the best tool to solve this problem.
    Thermal printer works is the Printer Module is equipped with a semiconductor heating element, the print head heating and contact with the thermal printing paper can print out the desired pattern, the principle and thermal-type fax machines similar. The image is generated by heating and creating a chemical reaction in the film. This thermal printer chemical reaction is carried out at a certain temperature. High temperature will accelerate this chemical reaction. When the temperature is lower than 60 ℃, the paper takes quite a long, even a few years time to become dark; and when the temperature is 200 ℃, this reflection will be completed within a few microseconds.
Thermal printer characteristics
    Thermal printer is a conventional bill printing equipment, is a set of software and hardware in one embedded real-time processing system. It has small size, light weight, speed, low noise, print clear, easy to use, etc., and its ease of use and adaptability better. But the shortcomings of thermal printers is obvious, that is, it can not be printed out of the permanent preservation of documents, even the best use of thermal paper, can only save about 10 years.
    In the print media, the thermal printer can only use a special thermal paper, this print media surface will have a chemical reaction and will change color coating, and in order to achieve the print output. Thermal paper coating in the heat-sensitive components are mainly two: one is leuco dye or leuco dye; the other is the developer; when the thermal paper heat, they will produce a chemical reaction, which Showing different colors, such as blue, black, purple and so on.
Classification of thermal printers
    Thermal printer is mainly based on the arrangement of thermal components and classification, can be divided into row-type thermal and column-type thermal. Column thermal is an early product, mainly used in some of the printing speed is not demanding occasions. Line-type thermal technology is the last century 90's, the printing speed is much faster than the thermal column, the fastest speed has reached 200mm / sec.
The Application of Thermal Printer
    Thermal printing technology was first used in the fax machine, the basic principle is to receive data into the lattice of the printer signal to control the heating of the thermal unit, the thermal paper heat-sensitive coating heating development. At present, the thermal printer has been in the financial industry, logistics, medical and other fields are widely used.
    Although the application areas of Thermal Printer Mechanism have strong industry characteristics, but also gradually began to apply to the personal field.
