French term or phrase: billet thermique vs dématérialisé
In the terms of an Agreement relating to the bulk sale of museum tickets, one Article stipulates the type of ticket issued:

"les billets délivrés au client sont des billets thermiques ou des billets dématérialises"

I understand that the former are physically produced by the museum (and delivered), the latter being e-tickets. Why do they bother stipulating the sort of printer used? Is it to say they are not printouts produced by the client via an online booking? I.e. In context, how can I best render the two options?

agree  Tony M: Yes, using a thermal printer; probably just because that is the type they normally use (like most businesses these days, supermarket till receipts, etc.) — hence for them, it simply means 'our normal printed ticket'
