Things to consider when buying a label printer

Purpose. Of all the things to consider, purpose is the most important. Your needs are going to be different, for example, if you need labels for an office environment compared to a retail environment., and your needs will be different again in a factory environment. Some things to think about are:

• Do you need to print just one individual label at a time, and only occasionally? A small thermal label printer will most likely be the best choice to suit this need.
• Do you need to print large quantities of labels with similar but variable data all at once? A sheet feed multi-label printer may be the best choice.
• Do you need to print thousands of identical labels per hour on a continual basis? An industrial roll feed printer is highly suited to this purpose.
• Is economy the most important factor for you? A thermal label printer may be your best choice because it does not require any ink or toner, and will typically outlast the lifespan of other printer types.
• Is high print quality the most important factor for you? Inkjet and laser label printers usually give superior image quality and longer lasting results.
• Do you need to print in multiple colours? Inkjet label printers give the best results for multi-colour printing.

Other factors to keep in mind when buying a label printer

• Printing Speed. How quickly a printer performs depends on the size and type of print head, how many labels are fed to the printer at once, size of the labels, and the rate of spooling.
• Operating system compatibility. Most printers work with Microsoft Windows, and a slightly smaller number also work with Mac OSX. An even smaller number are able to work with Linux, Unix and BSD “out of the box”, but drivers can be downloaded for many of the ones that are not officially supported. Some industrial printer models are made with onboard SBC technology that runs Linux so they can be operated as stand-alone devices without needing to attach to an external computer.
• Ink-fastness. This refers to the durability of the ink or toner after it is applied to the label. Some injket printers have waterproof ink that won’t run or streak if the label gets wet (which could be important in maritime environments, for example). The quality of thermal labels will be severely affected when exposed to strong sunlight for any considerable time, or when exposed to high radiant heat.
• Reliability. In office environments, reliability is not normally a major concern. In a factory environment, having to stop production to fix a printer problem would be a costly annoyance. Sheet feed printers are more likely to suffer problems than printers that feed labels from a roll, belt, or spool.
• Cost. You need to think about not only the upfront cost but also the ongoing operational costs. Some printers with a high upfront cost may actually be more economical over the long term.
• Eco-friendliness. If your business is promoted as an environmentally responsible one, or you simply want to make environmentally responsible choices, some printers have significantly lower environmental impact than others.
