Genuine Zebra thermal transfer ribbons for Zebra GX430t desktop printers. You can find labels for the Zebra GX430t printer here.

If you use thermal transfer labels you will need to use a thermal transfer ribbon in conjunction with the labels to print an image. The type of ribbon you select is importance and should match the label you use. The ribbon should be at least as wide as the label plus backer -  the ribbon acts as a barrier between the printhead and label material (as well as printing the image) and therefore ensuring that your ribbon is the correct size for your labels will reducing printhead wear.
