Looking to buy Label Printers?
Whether you're the owner of a small business who needs to print off dozens of shipping labels every day, or you're just looking for a machine to help you label your files and personal property, a label printer is an inexpensive and easy way to print off lots of adhesive labels in little time at all.
A label printer is a type of computer printer that prints on self-adhesive labels instead of ordinary printer paper. Some industrial label printers are huge, as they're built to pump out labels at a nearly continuous rate for hours at a time. They're great for large companies but they're impractical for the average person to own.
Instead, our sellers have a phenomenal range of desktop label printers which are small, compact and easy for anyone to manage - many of them are handheld. Our collection of thermal label printers includes highly reliable models made by brands like Brother.
Some of these machines will even print in colour! Colour label printers are brilliant for creating self-adhesive logo stickers to market your company's brand and more.
Direct thermal vs thermal transfer label printers
When you buy a label printer, you need to choose between two printing technologies: Direct thermal printing and thermal transfer. Direct thermal label printers work by printing directly onto heat-sensitive paper, while thermal transfer label printers use heat to transfer ink from a ribbon onto the label material. The ribbon acts as a medium for the ink, which is then transferred onto the label.
Direct thermal label printers are perfect for printing labels that have a short shelf life and will not be exposed to heat, light, or chemicals. These printers are also very fast and efficient, making them a great choice for printing large quantities of labels quickly.
Thermal transfer label printers are perfect for labels that need to last for a long time, since the ink is more durable than the dye used in direct thermal printing. Thermal transfer printers also tend to have higher dpi (dots per inch) resolutions than direct thermal label printers. This makes them a great choice for printing labels that will be used for marketing or branding purposes.
