Rob van den Braak/10/04/2017/Productie/Techniek

Memjet inkjet technology is het geheim achter de betaalbare labelprinter van Afinia Label. De Label L801 is de compactste labelprinter in de uitgebreide serie van Afinia Label en kost minder dan 10.000 euro. Ook het vervangen van de inktkop is redelijk geprijsd en dankzij de in veel inkjet printers gebruikte Memjet koppen zijn ook de inkten redelijk geprijst.

PERSBERICHT

The L801 Label Printer has proven itself to be a very fast and cost-effective printer. How does it stack-up against 1600C, which is also a Memjet-powered label printer.

The Bottom Line: The Afinia L801 Label Printer is less expensive to acquire and is more capable than the 1600C.

Both printers are powered by Memjet print engines, the fastest desktop printer engine available. They both print at between 30′ and 60′ per minute and produce vibrant labels using proprietary Memjet dye-based ink.

Depending upon where you get your 1600C price quote, the Afinia Label L801 may be many thousands of dollars less. Also, the L801 comes with an enclosed label roll unwinder. It also has three cutting modes: Roll-to-Cut, Print-and-Present, Cut-to-Stack.

Printer	Afinia L801	1600C	Afinia L801 Advantage
MSRP	$7,995USD	$10,500	23% Less Expensive
Included Unwinder	Yes	No	Included Unwinder
Multiple Print Modes	Yes, Cut-to-Roll, Present-and-Print, Print-and-Cut	No	Greater Capability
Resolution	1600x1600dpi/1600x800dpi	1600x1600dpi/1600x800dpi	–
Print Speed	30fpm/60fpm	30fpm/60fpm	–
Label Print Width Range	2.0 – 8.5”	2.0 – 8.5”	–
Cost of Changing Printhead	$400	$400	–
Ink Cartridges	CMYKK	CMYKK	–
Ink Cost/250ml	$200	$200	–

Conclusion: Both label printers are based upon the same print engine technology and will deliver high-quality results. The Afinia Label L801 will cost thousands of dollars less to acquire, which will decrease the amount of time in which you will experience positive ROI.

This is especially important if you will cost-justify your label printer purchase by printing your labels in-house, which can be a really good idea because you can:

print as many labels as you need, when you need them,
avoid buying more labels than necessary, to meet minimum label purchase requirements,
avoid discarding labels made obsolete by changes in governmental regulations or ingredients.
