The standard typeholder has an external diameter of 50.8 mm and two print areas for 180° steps. This allows a minimum print distance of approximately 80 mm. Typeholders for brass type are equipped with a handle and a non-thermal conducting material and a lock-ring with a ball catch, making it possible to replace the type without having to use tools. The type is inserted onto the needles and transversely secured by silicone lock rings.

Standard type is available in 3 mm font height as single type with numbers or letters in both radial type, which prints in parallel with the packing film movement, and as axial type, which prints transverse to the packing film movement. Special-purpose type with text, small labels and special characters (e.g. Arabic or Cyrillic) is available on request.

The ink for the Elmo-roll printers is supplied in rolls, which are composed of a foam core into which thermal ink has been pressed. The ink is permanent at room temperature and does not begin to rub off until around 90°C.

The ink rolls are available in trays of 25 in the following colours: black, white, blue, red, yellow, green and brown. In normal use, an ink roll prints around 100,000 dates.
