Is IBC’s Equipment Stronger than Any Other?

What IBC is doing that other’s are NOT.

August 27, 2008

IBC has in recent years added some product value additions to help customers in the industry be more accurate and efficient.

One of these industry leading perks is a highly valuable ribbon that has what is called “Clean Start”. Clean Start was invented to encourage printhead cleaning and make it easy. Over a period of time you will not only increase the longevity of your print head but save on misprinted label stock because of inconsistent printhead cleaning.   Clean Start is a printhead cleaner that is built into the beginning of the thermal transfer ribbon. It is a thin, white film coated with a mild cleanser that gets pulled through the locked printhead at the start of each ribbon load to remove residue before it builds up. Just another addition IBC thought would improve your business.

At the other end of the spectrum, IBC is committed to making sure the labels we send out are 100% scanable and so we inspect most label orders twice! This is what a report typically looks like:
