Color label printers are gaining popularity among small businesses in recent years because they offer options and flexibility over pre-printed labels.<\/p>\n
Business owners may have several reasons to complain about pre-printed labels,<\/p>\n
Pre-printed labels typically have fixed designs, sizes, and shapes.<\/p>\n
When modifying product information (ingredient lists or barcodes), necessitates reprinting a new batch of labels.<\/p>\n
Pre-printed labels often require a minimum order quantity. As a business expands its product portfolio, the labeling cost will increase exponentially.<\/p>\n
Businesses need to maintain an inventory of labels that can be challenging to manage.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, businesses may need to dispose of pre-printed labels that are no longer required, resulting in wasted resources and expenses.<\/p>\n
Pre-printed labels include setup, design, and printing fees. All these add up fast, especially for small businesses with many products.<\/p>\n
Pre-printed labels require production time. That means the lead time can delay\/disrupt your product delivery schedule.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Unlike before, the consumer market is trending to a shorter product life cycle, more variety, and lean production. All these factors drive businesses to explore printing labels in-house.<\/p>\n
If these are the same issues that plague you, it is time to consider a better alternate labeling workflow or solution.<\/p>\n
