  • Transfer lamination
    Patent number: 10105981
    Abstract: In a transfer printing method using a transfer layer on a carrier layer, an image is printed over a transfer section of the transfer layer using a thermal print head and a print ribbon. At least one non-transfer portion of the transfer section is heated using the thermal print head without bonding the at least one non-transfer portion of the transfer section to the print ribbon. The at least one non-transfer portions of the transfer section are transferred from the carrier layer to an adhesive panel of the print ribbon using the thermal print head. Imaged transfer portions of the transfer section remain adhered to the carrier layer. The imaged transfer portions of the transfer section are then transferred from the carrier layer to a substrate using a transfer device.
