Who Should Read This Single Pass Color Label Printer Guide?

This guide is specifically for label manufacturers, packaging specialists, and print service providers who need:
✔ High-volume variable data printing (QR/barcodes).
✔ Customized label production print on demand with special finishes.
✔ Industrial-grade durability or compact desktop solutions.
If you primarily need office document daily printing, color laser printers may suit you better.

• Desktop Single-Pass Printers (A3/A4 Water-Based)

Ideal When:

Daily output ≤2,500 labels

Space is limited (≤1m² footprint)

Using paper/light film substrates (≤300gsm)

Key Advantages:
▶ Variable Data Mastery: Print unique QR codes/barcodes at full speed without pre-rasterization delays
▶ Eco-Friendly: Water-based dye/pigment inks meet food packaging safety standards
▶ Plug-and-Play: No industrial power requirements (110V/220V operation)

Limitation Alert: Max width 330mm (A3), slower than roll systems (≤15m/min)

• Industrial Roll-to-Roll Single-Pass Systems

Choose When:

Producing ≥5,000 labels/day

Handling tough materials (PET PP Roll films, metallic films, synthetic labels)

Needing inline pretreatment

Why Professionals Prefer This:
⚡ Integrated Corona Treatment: Boosts ink adhesion on non-porous materials by 40%
⚡ Dust Removal: Reduces print defects by 15-20% vs untreated webs.
⚡ Roll jig afford: 100 kg rolls stable run and correction
⚡ Web Control: Maintains ±0.1mm registration on thin films

• UV Hybrid Systems with Coating

For Extreme Applications:
☑ Outdoor/chemical-resistant labels
☑ Security features (tactile varnishes, holographic effects)
☑ Challenging substrates (untreated plastics, recycled materials)

Technology Breakdown:

UV Printer: LED-cured inks with instant drying.

Coating Module: Gloss/matte/sealant application.

Pretreatment Suite: Corona + electrostatic dust removal.

Decision Cheat Sheet

Why We Beat Color Laser Printers?

While some customers consider laser printers, our single-pass systems dominate in:

• Customization: Print white ink/Pantone colors (impossible with laser)
• Variable Data: Dynamic QR/barcode serialization at 100% accuracy
• Material Range: Handle films/textured surfaces laser printers can’t.
