What are the disadvantages of a thermal printer?

[Jeanine]

A thermal printer is a type of printer that uses heat to transfer an image or text onto paper or other media. This printer works by selectively heating special thermal paper, which changes color in response to the heat, creating a printed image or text. Thermal printers are commonly used in point-of-sale systems, labeling machines, and other applications where speed and reliability are essential. They are also often used for printing receipts, shipping labels, and other labels.

Two main types of thermal printers are direct thermal and thermal transfer. Direct thermal printers use heat-sensitive paper that darkens when heated, while thermal transfer printers use a heated ribbon to transfer ink onto the paper. Thermal printers are generally faster and quieter than other types of printers, requiring less maintenance since they have fewer moving parts. However, thermal paper is more expensive than regular paper, and the images it produces can fade over time if exposed to heat or sunlight.
