Tag — A type of media having no adhesive backing but featuring a hole or
notch by which the tag can be hung on something. Usually tags are made
of cardboard or other durable material.
Take label sensor — See “label available sensor.”
Thermal direct printing — See “direct thermal printing.”
Thermal transfer printing — A printing method in which the printhead
heats an ink- or resin-coated ribbon against the media, causing the
ink/resin to transfer onto the media. By selectively heating the ribbon, you
can form an image on the media. See also “ribbon.”
Void — A space where printing should have occurred but, due to some
error condition, it did not. A void can cause a bar code symbol to be read
incorrectly or to not be read at all.
