Introduction to Label Printers...

Label printers use direct thermal or thermal transfer printer systems to produce individual or batches of self adhesive labels.

Alternative techniques can be used to produce labels on standard miniprinters (see sidebar) but for true labelling applications, a dedicated, purpose designed printer is essential. These direct powered, benchtop labellers are required for higher volume and permanent labelling operations. They accommodate a larger, longer label roll and options are available to include a cutter or label dispenser. They can also print on; die-cut, continuous, fan-fold media or tags. Many can print tickets onto direct thermal or plain paper (using a thermal transfer ribbon) and some are suitable for printing on fabric, plastic or metal labels.
