  Thermal Paper Rolls is a recording medium that uses heat from a thermal printer to print. When the chosen region of the thermal paper moves over the thermal print head, the image is created by heat rather than printing ink. The picture is produced by applying heat (thermal energy) directly to the thermal paper, which has a coating that changes color to black when exposed to heat. The thermal paper does not require an ink ribbon, toner, or ink cartridge to record data.

  Thermal printing is carried out with lightweight, portable thermal printers that need little maintenance. Thermal paper is commonly used in a variety of uses, including stickers, vouchers, POS receipts, and medical maps, due to its superior thermal properties, due to its high level of dependability and convenience. These papers are most commonly used in Thermal paper rolls are made up of a base paper and a few different types of coating layers. The precoat layer and the thermal layer are coated on the recording side's surface.

  Base Paper

  The base paper designed specifically for thermal paper technology is the first layer of the thermal paper. Thermal layer is applied to the base paper.

  Precoat

  The precoat layer increases the thermal layer's heat isolation, smoothness, uniformity, and anchoring.

  Thermal layer

  This layer's aim is to create images with a thermal reaction. In reality, this coating of chemicals such as ink, developer, and sensitizer causes the paper to turn black in heated environments.
