Thermal printers are types of printers that print using carefully controlled heat generated by the print head. There are two types of thermal printers. Direct thermal and thermal transfer printers. Direct thermal printers, as their name implies prints directly on to the media. The media has a chemical coating that changes color with the heat of the print head. Thermal transfer printers use a ribbon that makes contact with the print head and the media. To create an image the heat from the print head is “Transferred” through the ribbon melting the ink in the pattern generated by the printer. The ribbon usually consists of a plastic lining that is coated ink on one side. Thermal transfer ribbons can come coated inside, or coated outside depending on the make and model of the printer the ribbon is used with. The ink is usually made of a wax and/ or resin. Wax ribbons are good for printing on natural paper media. Resin blended ribbons are usually reserved for printing on synthetic media that is very smooth. The higher the resin content the more smudge resistant the printed media will be. Since both of these printers rely on precise temperatures to create an image, both print technologies are affected by very cold conditions.

Direct thermal printers have an advantage when it comes to printing in cold conditions. Since the print head makes contact directly with the media, it can tolerate temperatures a little colder than thermal transfer printers can. Direct thermal printers … Continue Reading ...

It is a known fact that weather conditions can affect the quality of calls you make. Extreme weather conditions have the power to affect your device’s performance. Some of the weather conditions that can adversely affect your signal reception are:

Heat
Extreme temperatures are not good for any cell. Extreme heat can disable your cell from picking up signals properly. The radio waves that make up the cell signals get distorted or often totally lost due to the extreme temperature. Very hot weather can even cause the battery to leak.

Quoting Motorola’s warning here, “A car’s internal temperature can exceed 80 degrees Celsius, and the temperature of a dashboard with direct exposure to the sun can exceed 120 degrees Celsius.”

The statement highlights how dangerous extreme heat is not just to the signals, but also to your cell phone. Make sure you keep it in a proper atmosphere – away from heat, fire, and direct sunlight.

Cold
If heat can affect your phone – so can cold. Through research, it has been proven that extreme cold can affect a cell phone’s ability to catch signals properly. It can also destroy its components and cause greater damage in the long run.

A study at the Environ Laboratories in Minneapolis showed the adverse affects that cold temperature can have on cell phones and their performance. According to the result, the screen started to dim at 10 degrees Fahrenheit. As the temperature started decreasing, the conditions only worsened. At minus 10 degrees Fahrenheit, … Continue Reading ...
