Frequently Asked Question
What is the difference between direct thermal and thermal transfer printing?
Direct thermal uses heat-sensitive labels that darken without a ribbon, ideal for short-term uses like shipping labels. Thermal transfer melts ink from a ribbon onto labels for durable, long-lasting prints suitable for harsh environments or extended storage.
What types of printers does GoDEX offer?
GoDEX provides mobile (portable, battery-powered for field use), desktop (compact for office/retail labeling), and industrial (rugged, high-volume for warehouses/manufacturing) thermal printers, supporting both direct thermal and thermal transfer methods.
What software comes with GoDEX printers?
Every GoDEX printer includes GoLabel, a free, intuitive software for designing and printing custom labels, barcodes, and graphics with drag-and-drop ease. No subscriptions required.
What is the warranty on GoDEX printers?
GoDEX offers a standard 2-year warranty on the printer and 3 months (or 50km) on the printhead, with global support for reliable performance.
Is a GoDEX printer easy to set up for first-time users?
Yes, unbox, connect via USB or Ethernet, install free GoLabel software and drivers, load labels/ribbon, and press one button for auto-calibration. Most users are printing in under 10 minutes.
