The Benefits Of Ribbon Save And Speed

Want to increase efficiency? Want to put your in-house printing operation in hyper drive?

Shrinking margins and fast turn around have put many manufacturers on a quest for new, high solutions. Why not use what the service bureaus use — the Avery Dennison 64 series thermal printer.

The Avery Dennison 64 series enabled users to efficiently increase throughput, lower overhead and keep labor costs in line. As the system rolled out, it was immediately apparent that fewer operators were needed and consumable use had dropped with an increase in print quality.

For years manufacturers grappled with faster methods to imprint labels. Flexographic, rotogravure and letterpress printing are fine for long runs of exactly the same unchanging information. However when one gets into variable information printing in batches or singles the aforementioned technologies are no match for thermal printing. Thermal label printers are ideal for short runs because they produce accurate, tight tolerance images without blur. They are especially good at printing very dense images that can be scanned easily, even 2D graphics.
