Impact Printer Consumables

Impact dot matrix printers print onto 'Ordinary' paper rolls but, despite the terminology, the specification of the rolls required is critical to the operation and ultimate life of the print head. The paper must be absorbent enough to take the ink but at the same time be glossy and smooth to reduce wear and minimise the generation of dust. We supply only Grade A rolls so you can be sure of the best performance, print quality and longevity of your printer mechanism.

Many impact printers rely on the ink to lubricate the dot wires (pins) so the use of the correct ink is essential. This is why we only offer genuine manufacturer's ink ribbon cartridges. We carry a wide range of paper rolls and ink ribbons. The consumables listed here are only a selection of either the most popular types, or products matched to our most popular ranges of miniprinters.
