On the basis of technology, the market is divided into thermal transfer, direct transfer, laser, and inkjet. The thermal transfer segment acquired the largest revenue share in the market in 2022. Heat is used during the printing process, known as thermal transfer, to transfer ink to a substrate. For example, a thermal printhead is used to heat a tiny coating of resin- or wax-based ink on an adhesive ribbon. The wax-based ink is melted onto the substrate or labeled by heating the ribbon with a heat source, like an infrared heating device. When heated ink comes into contact with the paper, it dissolves and transfers the picture to the support.
By end-user, the market is fragmented into healthcare, manufacturing, retail & e-commerce, transportation & logistics, government, and others. The manufacturing segment garnered the maximum revenue share in the market in 2022. The widespread use of barcode printers in manufacturing is being driven by the strong focus on automation in the industry being pursued by numerous manufacturers around the world to streamline and improve manufacturing operations as part of their efforts to increase output while reducing wastage.
