Free Guide: Choosing the Right Label Printer for Your Business

Choosing the Right Label Printer

Thinking about investing in a label printer—but not sure where to start?

You’re not alone. With so many models, specs, ink types, and finishing options on the market, choosing the right label printer can quickly go from exciting to overwhelming.

The truth is, your label printer isn’t just a machine—it’s a long-term investment in your workflow, your brand, and your bottom line.

To help you cut through the confusion, we’ve created a Free Guide: Choosing the Right Label Printer for Your Business—and in this post, we’re giving you a sneak peek into what it covers, why it matters, and how it can save you time, money, and costly mistakes.

Why Choosing the Right Label Printer Matters

Let’s face it: labels aren’t just stickers. They’re a core part of your product’s identity—the first thing customers see on the shelf. Whether you’re in food and beverage, cosmetics, nutraceuticals, or manufacturing, your labels need to be:

  • High-quality

  • Durable

  • Cost-effective

  • Customizable

But here’s the catch: not every label printer fits every business.

A small batch producer printing 500 personalized labels a week has different needs than a manufacturer running tens of thousands of SKUs with tight turnaround times.

That’s why making an informed choice matters.

What’s Inside the Free Guide?

Our downloadable guide walks you through the key questions and considerations that go into selecting the perfect printer. Here’s what it helps you figure out:

What Are Your Volume Needs?

Do you need short-run flexibility or high-volume capacity? The guide helps you calculate your label output and match it with the right machine.

What Types of Materials Do You Use?

Labels on glass bottles? Flexible pouches? Foil or film? Different substrates require different print technologies and inks. The guide helps you understand what works with what.

How Important is Finishing?

Do you need lamination, die-cutting, or varnish? Discover how inline finishing solutions like the ArrowEZcut 350R can streamline your process and boost efficiency.

Should You Go Pigment or Dye-Based?

Learn the difference between pigment and Dye inks—and which one is better for your industry’s durability and compliance standards.

What’s Your Budget (and What’s the Real ROI)?

We break down the total cost of ownership and help you factor in maintenance, consumables, and time savings—so you’re not just shopping by price tag.
