What are Label Printers?

Label printers provide stickers and labels for restaurants, bakeries, supermarkets, and convenience stores to organize their stocks by date, label food products and containers with name tags, or showcase the price or any other information, such as nutritional, weight, or pricing data your personnel needs.

Commercial label printers are designed for easy and efficient use in all foodservice establishments with the following:

  • A label printer weighs about 1 Ibs (453,5 gr) with its compact design; therefore, you or your staff can easily carry these portable label printers around the establishment.
  • Quick integration with any organization in your establishment. So, you can use handheld label printers in coordination with your existing equipment.
  • Easy-to-load design for placing new paper rolls in seconds so you can continue your duty without intervals.

Is It Cheaper to Get a Label Printer?

Whether it's cheaper to get a label printer depends on various factors, including the volume of labels you need, the type of labels, and the long-term usage. Here are 6 points to consider:

  • Volume of Labels: If your business or personal needs require printing labels frequently and in large quantities, investing in a label printer could be more cost-effective in the long run. On the other hand, for occasional label printing, it might be cheaper to use a regular printer or a printing service.
  • Cost of Supplies: Label printers usually require specific types of label tapes or rolls, which can vary in price. Compare this to the cost of buying label sheets for a regular printer. Also, consider the cost of ink or toner for a regular printer versus the thermal printing technology used by many label printers, which doesn't require ink.
  • Efficiency and Convenience: A dedicated label printer is generally more efficient for printing large batches of labels. It can save time and labor, indirectly affecting costs, especially in business.
  • Quality and Customization: Label printers often provide higher quality and more durable labels, essential for certain purposes like shipping, product labeling, or outdoor use. If high-quality labels are necessary for your operations, the investment in a label printer might be justified.
  • Initial Investment vs. Ongoing Costs: The initial cost of a label printer might be higher than that of a regular printer. However, over time, the cost per label can be lower with a label printer, especially if it uses thermal technology that doesn't require ink or toner.
  • Type of Labels Needed: If you need specialized labels (like waterproof, tear-resistant, and different shapes/sizes), a label printer is usually better equipped to handle these needs efficiently.
