5 Reasons Why Now is a Great Time to Buy a Label Printer for the Office

Labels are a great way to keep your products organized and looking professional. They also help you avoid costly mistakes in inventory management. But what if you don’t have time to order pre-printed labels from a third-party supplier? What if you need something printed on-demand or want to print custom labels for certain items? Whether you need a basic label printer to ship orders or want a more professional unit to print your own product labels, now is a great time to buy one.

Here are five reasons why:

1. Large selection of printers for every budget from a basic direct thermal printer for shipping labels and inventory barcodes to more advanced models with touchscreens, larger paper capacities, wireless connectivity, and full color, professional-quality output.
2. The label printing market is growing. A 2019 Future Market Insights analysis of the label printing industry projected that the thermal label printing market is expected to grow at a compounded annual rate of 4.4 percent by 2025. In other words, your business will increasingly rely on labels and barcodes.
3. Being able to print your own labels on demand means you’ll spend less on pre-printed labels. Plus, you’ll have greater control over how your products are identified.
4. You have a wider range of label materials to choose from today than ever before, including durable synthetics and fade-resistant polypropylene labels that can stand up to the elements indoors or out.
5. More advanced solutions, such as RFID and NFC tags, help businesses track their inventory in real-time. In the past, these solutions were out-of-range for smaller businesses. Today, they’re affordable and accessible.
