How should the apparel industry buy a barcode printer?

How should the apparel industry buy a barcode printer:

Because many manufacturers, when looking for label bar code printers, generally do not know the brand standard is the real demand, plus sellers in order to profit from their own, generally recommend some high profits, but not necessarily the most suitable products, thus Some companies generally purchase goods that are not suitable for their own situation.

Use load

In general, bar code printers are mainly divided into commercial and industrial types:

The commercial type is suitable for small-scale garment factories and other occasions where the printing volume is small. The mechanical structure selected for commercial bar code printers is mainly composed of plastics, and has considerable advantages in quotation.

The industrial type considers the demand for high-volume printing and harsh working environment. Generally, industrial products are made of metal parts and higher equipment. The durability and stability are much better than commercial products, and the printing speed is also high. Much faster.

There is no very accurate dividing line for the application of load. According to our experience and some information, the daily workload is no more than 4,000 sheets, and the label printing volume of 1000 sheets per day can be considered for commercial machines. Of course, the life expectancy of using industrial printing under equal load will be longer.

2. Printing accuracy

Barcode printers are distinguished by print accuracy, mainly 203dpi and 300dpi, and the price of 300dpi is about 45% more expensive. Generally speaking, if you are mainly used to print self-adhesive labels, you can use a 203dpi machine. If you are mainly used to print clothing tags and washing labels, I recommend you to buy the best printing accuracy machine at 300 points because of washing. The label printing function is not as good as the sticker and the tag paper, especially when printing some small contrast text and washing symbols. If the printing resolution of the 200-point machine is poor, it may not be clear, and the handwriting is simply dropped. , contaminated clothing.

3. Printing method

Bar code printers are divided into thermal transfer and thermal transfer from the principle of printing. The thermal printer transmission mechanism is simple, directly acting on thermal paper, and the handwriting retention time is short, which is suitable for the ready-to-use category such as retailing, such as printing computer tickets. Thermal transfer printers can also be converted to thermal methods for printing, which is very versatile. Thermal transfer is the transfer of toner on the ribbon to the medium through the high temperature on the print head. The handwriting is kept for a long time, so the application is also extensive.

4. Repair service

Barcode printers have a strong professional contrast, and suppliers should carefully consider the professional settings of the suppliers.

Professional training: Generally, the supplier will conduct comparative professional training for direct users. In addition to the operation training, it should also introduce the usual protection and maintenance, and simple problem-solving.

Professional repair: should be able to supply localized repair services, bar code printer print head is a consumable part, generally 2 to 3 years of demand replacement, which also requires regular contact professionals to provide print head maintenance services, otherwise it can affect the print head life .

Backup service: When the equipment needs to be returned to the factory for repair, the backup equipment should be supplied to ensure that the production is not affected.

Consumables supply: It should be able to supply the consumables required by customers in a timely manner, and can provide professional guidance for the special needs of customers.

5. Parts and consumables costs

In addition to thinking about the machine's own price/performance ratio, consider the quotations of consumables and parts (mainly printheads). The print head quotation accounts for about 35% of the equipment quotation. It is also a consumable part in the printer. Printing on various unpredictable printing materials, or the influence of the operating environment, may cause damage to the print head. Therefore, we recommend purchasing this. Township trust brand, do not find it difficult to find the source or offer too expensive when replacing the print head after 2~3 years.

6. Other issues that need attention

If the practice work requires printing a large amount of data from the database, it is best to use industrial products with large memory contrast; if the information in the database includes Chinese characters, then think about selecting models that can download Chinese characters into the machine's memory. If there are many types of printed media, especially printing labels and distance label rolls, it is necessary to select the type of sensor that can be moved to facilitate sensitive positioning. Also, consider the details of whether the print media requires additional brackets.

7. Market situation

Now, the domestic bar code printers follow the advancement of skills and the decline in quotations, and it has gradually spread. The hometown brand has a significant advantage in terms of quotation and service, and therefore has a majority market share in China. Many foreign-funded manufacturers use local brands in foreign countries. For this reason, domestic brands are also relatively trusted and selected by foreign manufacturers, even if the price is expensive.
