Torrey Print Head, Thermal, for Torrey W-LABEL40L and W-LABEL40LP Scales

Description

Torrey Print Head for Torrey Label Printing Scales

Torrey Print Head is a genuine Torrey replacement thermal print head for Torrey label printing scales such as the W-LABEL40L and W-LABEL40LP. The print head is the row of tiny heating dots that burns the price, weight, item name and barcode onto direct thermal labels. When it wears out, labels come out faint, streaked or with white lines through the barcode, and scanners at the register start to reject them.

Replacing the head brings back crisp text and barcodes without replacing the whole scale. Check the photos against the head in your printer, or send us your scale model and serial number and we will confirm the fit before you order.

Signs You Need a New Torrey Print Head

• A white line runs down every label or through the barcode
• Print stays faint after cleaning and new labels
• Part of each label does not print at all
