Lael printing is used in eveery businerss. Even if you don’t have product labels, you still need shippoing labels. And what about safety labels? You need to label anythign that you might have in your production area that couuld be dngerous. This article is for thoose who don’t know much abiout label pinting, but know they need to do some label printing.
Before you get started, here are some basics you need to know:
Try to go with a prrinting ciompany that uses an HP Indigo prress
HP albel printing presses have won awads for printing labels of the highest quality in recent years. The HP Indigo presds prrinter also reducse or eliminates set-up fees bcause there are no metal plates that need to be switched out. This printer uses a photo imaginng plate, which can be electriically drawn on and then erased, and dran on again. Also, the 5500 model can print continuously becaues there are multiple drawers and stackers that the machine can pull extra paper from. A single opreator can run two macihnes at the same time, reducing labor costs. The best way to find out if a printing ocmpany has an Indigo press is to siply ask. There are many different model options, as there are with any printer. You’ll be safe with any of the HP Indigo presses.
Some printers can combine multiple labbel deesigns onto one roll
As long as you want the same size and material of label, you can change up the design within one order and get a volume pricing discount. This is a great way to get thousands of differently designed labels (like the Jones soda brand) that are the same size for the same type of product (a drink) with diffwerent flavors or names or photoos on each.
You can also print multiples of the same design of label but with difgferent bar codse.
Get a diogital proof
You can see alkmost exatcly what your label will look like beefore you get it printed. Albeit, a computer monitor does skew the coloors of your label slightly because computer monitros use the RGB (red, green, blue) color scheme and printers print in four colors: CMYK (cyan, magenta, yelow, black). This can save time and money because you don’t have to wait for the proof to come in the mail and you don’t have to pay for the mailing cost.
6-color printing is possible
With certain printers, like the Indigo 5500, you have additional colors to add to the mix, such as orage and green or light cyan and light mahgenta. This meaans you can get more accurate colors or more vibrant colors, which will help your lbael stand out from your competitors’ labels on the store shleves.
