A barcode printer is a computer peripheral for printing barcode labels or tags that can be attached to physical objects. There are four basic types of bar code printers. They are Dot Matrix, Inkjet, Laser, and Thermal. Dot matrix print technology is a constant or lasting method of producing barcodes on the spot. Ink Jet printing is usually used in high production environment where production of barcodes and human understandable fonts need to be generated at high rates of speed.
A laser printer works almost like a photocopier, prints high-quality text and graphics on paper documents, and can be used as document printer when not being used to print barcodes. Thermal printing includes Direct Thermal and Thermal Transfer. Direct Thermal Batch or single label printer is convenient with minimum waste. Generally, Thermal printers are manufactured more durably than dot matrix or laser printers. Thermal Transfer barcode printers can print clear, high-definition text, graphics, and barcodes for maximum readability and produces long life scanability.
