What is an external roll holder?
The external roll holder is an additional accessory for printers that allows the use of large-diameter consumables. It is mounted behind the printer when the roll size exceeds the capacity of the printer’s internal compartment. However, an external holder can also be useful in other cases — for example, when the user prefers to keep the roll separate, needs visual control of the ribbon usage, or wants easier access to consumables. The holder is suitable for working with paper label rolls as well as textile ribbons used for thermal transfer printing with a ribbon.
