PGJI2 Marking and labeling systems printing materials
This category covers products that are intended to be printed by end product manufacturers using thermal transfer, laser or hot stamp printing equipment. Products in this category may be sold by major suppliers in blank roll form or by converters as blank or preprinted labels in a smaller format. Variable printing, unless otherwise stated in the Recognition, is not to be applied over background inks.
Inks intended for use by the end user will be specified in the Recognition and referenced with the label material in the Recognized Component Directory. Only those specific inks are to be used by the manufacturer. In addition, for laser and hot stamp printing the actual printing equipment is also specified. Any thermal transfer printer that will produce a legible image can be used to produce labels with the thermal transfer inks and label materials identified in category PGJI2.
