Types of Label Printers from Primera Technology
Primera Technology’s color label printers fall into the following categories:
-Primera Dye Inkjet Label Printers - Primera label printers using dye-based inks, such as the Primera LX500 (best for 500 or less labels per month), LX500c with built-in cutter and Primera LX900 (best for 3000 or less labels per month), produce stunning product labels in full color at a resolution of up to 4800 dpi. Primera dye inkjet label printers are ideal for customers needing very short label runs, ranging from 500 to 3,000 labels per month. The Primera LX900 prints at a speed of 0.8 inches per second when printing at 4800 dpi. These printers are ideal for cosmetic labels and essential oils that need to be printed on glossy polypropylene labels.
-Primera Pigment Inkjet Label Printers - This includes the Primera LX2000 GHS color label printer which uses HP pigment inks to produce GHS BS5609-compliant labels when using our LX2000 GHS BS5609 Chemical labels. Best for printing GHS labels up to 8 inches wide. The Primera LX2000 pigment inkjet color label printer is ideal for printing high resolution GHS BS5609 compliant labels, when printing between 500 to 3,000 labels per month. Prints at 4800 dpi at a print speed of 0.8 inches per second.
-Primera Laser Label Printer & Press - This includes the Primera CX1000 and the CX1200 color label press. These Primera Technology label printers use color laser technology from Lexmark and dry toners to quickly print small to medium quantities of full color product labels. The Primera CX1000 and CX1200 both have the same Lexmark print engine that will print at 2400 dpi at a print speed of 16.25 feet per minute. Ideal when printing between 3,000 to 10,000 labels per month.
What Do Customers Love about Primera Label Printers?
Customers love the print quality of their Primera label printers since they print at 4800 dpi and the low cost (generally between $1300 and $3500 depending on model). These are the main reasons people buy the Primera label printers as they are very affordable. This is usually the first color label printer the business is purchasing.
What Do Customers Hate about Primera Label Printers?
When many small business start searching for color label printers, they love the print quality of the Primera LX500, LX900, LX2000 and CX1200 label printers. However, most of these customers end up purchasing the LX500, LX900 or LX2000 simply because they are very affordable. Then, as their businesses grow and they need to print more and more labels, they realize their printers have a high ink cost and ink cost per label.
If you are going to be producing small quantities of labels per month, then the Primera printers are a great buy. However, if your business is going to grow and you will be printing more than 3,000 labels per month, then you really need to understand the ink cost. For example, a 4 x 6 label printed on the LX900 with full ink saturation may cost more than ten cents in ink while the same label printed with the Afinia L801 or Epson TM-C7500G will cost less than 2 cents. The ink costs can add up to thousands of dollars per year, so you may want to consider a higher capacity printer as a better long-term investment. The ink cost savings each month could help pay your monthly payment – or offset it completely.
