Chapter 1 Product Overview Paper Specifications Paper must not be pasted to the roll paper spool. If preprinted thermal paper is used, sticking (a problem of the thermal head sticking to the surface of the thermal paper during printing) may occur, causing faulty printing and other problems. Preprinting may also cause drop in the print density. RFID Baggage tag Complies with IATA RESOLUTION 1740C. 1 Take careful consideration in the print layout so that no printing is done on the backing paper or outer edge. Do not preprint (black marks or the equivalent print) in the joint between two backing papers.
The transmission rate must be 57% or more for the backing paper, and 18% or less for the backing paper + label paper. The joint within a baggage tag must be 1 mm {0.039"} or less. The hole size must be 1.6 to 6 mm {0.06 to 0.24"}. The gap between labels must be 3.2 to 6 mm {0.13 to 0.24"}. 25 Type Thermal paper Form Roll paper (The chromogenic side must face outside.)
