The printing process
e printer employs a dye sublimation printing system.
In this printing system, the thermal print head heats up as it passes over
the yellow, magenta, and then cyan layer of the ink ribbon, causing the
dyes to vaporize and permeate the surface of the print paper. en the nal
cycle lays a laminate layer as an overcoating to protect the printed surface:
