Before buying a case

• Read the complete model and suffix from the printer label.
• Confirm width, maximum diameter, roll length, and core where specified.
• For labels, confirm direct thermal versus thermal transfer, sensing method, adhesive, liner, and ribbon.
• Compare delivered case cost and actual roll length—not roll count alone.
• Test one small order before committing to long-term inventory.
