Label printing ? Understanding the different printing methods: I
understand direct thermal labels are not as durable as thermal
transfer, but how durable are labels printed on laser printers? Brief
answer requested.Howdy xiquet-ga,
Even though the following referenced study was with labels immersed in a
preservative solution, it shows that laser printed labels are extremely
durable.
"LASER-PRINTED LABELS IN WET COLLECTIONS: WILL THEY HOLD UP?" written by
KRISTA ZALA, N. DEAN PENTCHEFF, AND REGINA WETZER.
http://isopods.nhm.org/people/wetzer/pdf/10224.pdf
"This study establishes the ability of laser-printed labels on a variety
of cotton rag papers to withstand immersion in commonly used preservative
solutions for 14 yr without discernable deterioration."
A weatherproof/waterproof laser label, such as the one described on this
Online Labels, Inc. web page, could make a laser printed label even more
durable.

"It is an excellent choice for outdoor applications or applications where
durability is required."
If you need any clarification, please feel free to ask.
