How to choose a barcode printer

Many users have mentioned to me that I want to buy a printer, but I can't say what they want to buy. Before you buy a printer, you must first specify the purpose of the purchase.

Barcode printers on the market are divided into thermal and thermal transfer, and the resolution is more than 203DPI and 300DPI.

Let's take Jiabo's barcode printer as an example.

First, according to printing supplies and print volume to determine the model

1. If your print volume is not large, and the consumables are ordinary thermal label paper, then it is recommended that you purchase Jiabo's GP-3120 series printer. The outstanding price/performance ratio is the feature of this series of printers.

2. The paper capacity and ribbon capacity of ordinary printers are small. If the printing volume is large and the consumables are different, then it is recommended that you purchase Jiabo GP-9035 series, GP-1125 series or GP-9026 series printers, industrial design, It can accommodate large paper rolls and large length ribbons, and it has excellent performance in both service life and harsh environments.

Second, select the label printer model according to the print quality requirements

If the location of your application requires high print quality, such as jewelry, mobile phones, or on a smaller label, it is recommended that you use a 300DPI printer such as Jiabo's GP-9034 and GP-9035, and other general labels use 200DPI. It can be like a GP-3120 series printer.

Third, choose a brand product that has a reputation in the country or has a production enterprise

There are many products that are only handed over to agents for sale in China. It is very likely that the main business of the agent is not the product you want to buy, so the technical support is not enough. It is recommended that you choose a branded product that has a reputation or a domestic manufacturing company. For example, Jiabo printers provide a series of pre-sales and after-sales services to solve all the difficult problems in customer use.

Fourth, choose a functional, cost-effective label printer

Some foreign brands of printers, the price is very high, completely out of the real printer cost price, and in order to increase the price often added some functions that are not often needed in actual use, the current thermal transfer printer is still not popular reasons Mostly related to this, the purchase of a moderately priced, functionally appropriate printer is the best way to reduce costs.

Five, choose the price of parts cheap to repair a guaranteed brand

When purchasing a label printer, you should ask which parts are easily damaged. For a thermal transfer label printer, the most likely damage is the print head, because it prints on various unpredictable printing materials, or the influence of the operating environment. It may cause damage to the print head. If you buy a whole printer with the price of just replacing the print head, it is a big loss. In addition, you should ask about the preparation of the parts of the purchased products. Some parts of the products are not stocked in China. When it is necessary to replace the parts, the agents often take 3 months to half a year to re-import the parts, resulting in the work stoppage of the production unit. . Jiabo's printer accessories are all self-supplied by the manufacturer, and the two-day fast repair service is launched, which greatly reduces the maintenance cost and time cost.

The above selection techniques and methods hope to help you choose a satisfactory printer. More features and styles of printers, please enter the Jiabo official website to view and compare, many styles, there is always a suitable for you, I wish you a happy life.
