Zebra IQ Color - The flexibility to print color visual cues on demand
Print color labels on demand using Zebra´s patented, exclusive IQ Color direct thermal ink technology, and any Zebra thermal printer. IQ Color enables you to create visual cues or highlight important information - and do it as needed - within your current label format. This innovative technology provides a flexible, efficient and accurate alternative to such methods as using preprinted color thermal media, laser or ink jet printing, separate color labels, or color markers.
Customized to your needs
During label manufacturing, Zebra applies up to four invisible ink colors to the zones you designate. Your printer heat-activates the ink to make select colors visible as your application requires. It can reveal the color in the form of shapes, text, graphics or reverse images.
Available colors: Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, cyan, magenta
Capabilities in color zone: Text, shapes, graphics (logos), reverse image
Shelf life and storage conditions: 6 months
