Labels for 8"OD (8" diameter rolls) designed for industrial table top printers.

Most industrial table top thermal printers are designed for an 8" OD (outer diameter) roll with a core size of 3".

In addition, most, but not all, industrial table top printers can print both direct thermal and thermal transfer.

Make sure you understand the difference and your printers capabilities before ordering. If you have any questions please call our customer service department at (888) 812-2189.
