Squid Ink TTO printers use thermal printheads paired with thermal transfer ribbon to apply a consistent and reliable mark on user’s products. The SQ-32 and SQ-53 models offer high speed printing of incredible looking variable text, serial numbers, barcodes, and graphics at a razor-sharp 300 dpi. TTO machines also feature arm ribbon control to prevent ribbon breakage, and a 600 m length ribbon provides long run times between ribbon changes. Best of all, Squid Ink’s TTO printers minimize the ribbon gap between prints to 0.5 mm or less to save ribbon and increase efficiency.

Squid Ink offers intermittent and continuous TTO equipment capable of printing 32 mm x 46 mm with our SQ-32i model, and 32 mm x 106 mm with our SQ-32c continuous model. For applications requiring more print information, the SQ-53i TTO printer offers a print area of 53 mm x 53 mm, and 53 mm x 106 mm with the SQ-53c continuous model. The intermittent and continuous 32 and 53 models are all capable of printing at speeds of up to 500 PPM.
