Extensive DK Label Tests
The Temperature Test Procedure
Brother DK film, paper and 2-colour paper labels were attached to stainless steel,
heated and cooled.
Temperature Resistance Test
The Temperature Test Results
The results showed that DK film labels were unaffected throughout the
temperature test, whether placed in -80°C or in +80°C*. The DK paper labels
were unaffected at temperatures ranging from -80°C to +60°C, but showed
slight discolouration at +80°C.
The DK 2-colour paper labels were unaffected at temperatures ranging from
-80°C to 25°C, but showed slight discolouration at +60°C and the red colour
could not be distinguished at +80°C.
