Refurbished Thermal Printers Availalable in Our Store. No longer Use The Very Expensive Printer Ink or Toner
Thermal label printers are special application printers that are designed to print shipping and product labels. They use a printing technology that is specifically designed to the printing of labels. We are going to be talking about a printer that is made by one of the top manufacturers of thermal label printers. Zebra has been making this type of printers for over 20 years and they are used by many of the Fortune 500 companies for their product and shipping labels.
The Zebra LP-2844 Thermal Bar Code Printer is part of Zebra's Desktop class of printers. The LP-2844 is a very ruggedly built printer and it is fully enclosed and it will withstand harsh warehouse environments.
The LP-2844 is a small desktop size printer and it doesn't take up a whole lot of space. Because of its compact design it will fit in small spaces that the large production class label printers from Zebra won't fit. Even though it is made of plastic it will stand up to the hostile environment of a commercial warehouse. The printing mechanism is completely enclosed within the cover and it has a smoked gray colored window so you can check on the amount of labels that are still left.Because it is made almost entirely of plastic the printer doesn't weigh very much. The Thermal Label printer is small, the dimensions of the printer are7.9"/198mm W x 9.4"/238mm D x 6.8"/173mm H and it weighs a mere 3.7lbs/1.7kg.
Speed and Print Quality
Speed in a thermal label printer is measured in how many inches per second that is printed. Since its speed is measured in inches per second, the actual number of labels that it prints per second depends on size of the label being printed. The maximum print speed is 4"/102mmper second.
Printing Technology
Thermal label printers use heat to transfer or create the image on a media or label stock.
Direct Thermal: uses heat that reacts with the specially treated label material to create the image on the paper. With this type of printing you don't use a ribbon to create the image. More than likely you have seen this type of direct thermal printer in your local Walmart or Burger King. Some of the small receipt printers use direct thermal technology to print. The LP-2844 is an example of a printer that use this process.
Uses for this printer
This printer is an extremely versatile and durable little desktop printer. What we mean by that is we can use this printer for a wide range of different uses within our operation. We started out looking for a printer to print all of our shipping labels directly from our existing software program. After completing the initial setup we realized the printer would also work for packages receipts and invoices, self stick coupons for our shipping boxes, envelopes address labels, special offers messages, etc, etc.
The thermal self stick shipping labels are very affordable. You can buy them in our store. If you ship through FedEx and UPS you can order them for free.
The thermal printer paid for itself within the first month of owning it. The money we save in Ink and laser printer toner paid for the printer.
The Thermal printers we have available in our Store are refurbished with a 90 day warranty. These printers brand new cost about $400
We have been using our printer for about three years now with no problems at all.
