Print and Apply Label Applicators

 

 

Printer applicators, also known as print-and-apply models, are used for printing labels "on the fly" and then applying them. Printer applicators are preferred when a company has a large variety of products and pre-printing and storing every type of label becomes prohibitive. They are also used when special coding (e.g., date, batch number, serial numbers) is needed, when only small batches are run, and when changing labels for every batch is too time consuming.
