Toshiba AG3 Wax-Resin

Toshiba AG3 Wax-Resin


The all ‘New’ AG3 generation wax-resin quality product has been developed to compliment the new range of flat-head printers.

The AG3 grade offers excellent print performance on an even wider range of receiving materials, from low quality uncoated vellum papers to high end synthetics.

AG3 has high sensitivity so runs at lower temperatures, prolonging printhead life and performs admirably at higher speeds. This product has an improved blackness of 2.1 ODR, and offers heat resistance up to 100ºC and its superior back coating offers even greater printhead protection.

The enhancements of this premium wax-resin product makes it even more ideal for those multi-application needs within the flexible packaging industry. As with all Toshiba ribbon products, the AG3’s superior back coating offers the very best in printhead protection.
