Automated labeling systems use all the latest technology to produce clear labels on many surfaces. Businesses have many system options that will help them create the type of label they need on a budget. Inkjet printing has produced high-definition images in full color for many decades. Thermal inkjet printing has evolved into a reliable and cost-effective method that uses less ink than other types of printing. Thermal inkjet printing is ideal for printing labels on glossy paper products as well as non-paper materials.
There are many types of automated labeling systems that will serve both new and established businesses well. Some systems are created with customizable engine and part options. Several systems are designed to handle large amounts of difficult barcodes. There are also specialty systems that will handle printing for applications like bakery bag closures or wine bottles. There are systems designed to print on wrap as well as industrial pails. High-volume printers that handle front and back label combinations or wrap-around labels are also available. You can also find labeling systems for printing test tube labels and labels for cartons. Many of these systems are large machines. Smaller models that fit on a table or desk are also available. These labeling systems are ideal for smaller businesses. You can find ultra-compact models as small as four inches wide.
Many smaller labeling systems include an interactive LCD screen. The printers range in resolution from 203 dots per inch to 800 dots per inch. Some models use a battery and are designed for portable use in retail settings or parking lots.
