Frequently Asked Questions

The SATO CG208 supports both Direct Thermal and Thermal Transfer printing methods, giving you flexibility in choosing the ribbon type that best suits your application. This dual capability makes it suitable for a wide range of labeling needs, from temporary to long-lasting labels. We offer compatible ribbons for both printing methods available from us.

The SATO CG208 requires thermal transfer ribbons with a width of 2.32 inches (59 mm) and a maximum outer diameter of 1.50 inches (38 mm), with a 0.5-inch paper core in face-out configuration.

The SATO CG208 offers two print resolution options: 203 dpi (8 dots/mm) and 305 dpi (12 dots/mm), allowing you to choose the clarity level your application requires.
