Digital Label Printing Advantages

Here are some of the benefits of digital label printing:

High Printing Quality

With Digital label printing, you can get high-quality printing with sharp, accurate images and text.

Even the print resolution can reach 1200 dpi, producing vivid, vibrant colors and crisp text. It means you can get higher readability and design visibility if you have intricate design and small text.

Cost-effective:

Digital label printing is a cost-effective option for short to medium-sized print runs. You don’t need plates and other equipment associated with traditional printing, which means cost-saving for your business.

Additionally, digital printing can reduce waste and minimize the need for costly reprints due to errors.

Faster turnaround time:

You can expect faster turnaround times with digital label printing. It is because digital label print doesn’t require setting up plates or ink mixing. So, the time spent on the initial setup is minimal. This makes it an ideal option for urgent or last-minute printing jobs.

Customization:

Digital label printing allows for customization of each printed piece, such as variable data printing, where each piece can have unique information, such as names or barcodes.

It is beneficial for product labels that require unique identification or tracking. You can assign a barcode to the labels using this printing mode. Also, you can customize the label design according to your requirements.

Flexibility:

Digital label printing offers flexibility in terms of the type of material that can be used for printing. It can print on various materials, including paper, vinyl, polyester, and more, making it suitable for multiple applications.

You no longer have to adjust your printing designs just because the traditional printing technique wouldn’t allow that on a particular type of material.

Reduced environmental impact:

Quality control:

So, you can expect the same quality printing all across the batch, irrespective of the number of labels you print.

Re: Is there a way to add business name to a Dymo

John;

I am not sure what type or size roll that your Dymo uses or if it can use fanfold labels since I use the Zebra 420 series printers which can take both rolls and fanfold labels.  

As for your question, can you print on an entire roll your business name and then feed it through again for Square to print just the barcode?  Quick answer would be YES..... Long answer:

 

After printing your stores information, you would be re rolling the labels the opposite way so you would need Square to basically print upside down.  Why, because as you reroll the labels they would be upside down ...if you printed your company at the top of the label it would be the first thing on the roll.... last thing off as you reprint.  To avoid this you could print off all 5000 labels, have a giant mess of labels on the floor by your printer and start with the last label to put back on the roll.  The other way would be to print your company info upside down and let square print normally.  Ok so that is the 1st issue to over come.  2nd issue is if your printer needs the roll inside your printer on a holder, will you be able to get all 5000 labels rewound tight enough to fit inside the printer again??   Next thing is what if you want a label for something else without your company name on it for say labeling a file cabinet or anything else.  3rd thing to think of is how friendly is Squares Barcode printing software to align the barcode if your company name moves a little?  1/32 to 1/16 movement for printing is usually acceptable.  4th thing to consider, how much time and $$ will it cost you to reroll labels?? Is this cost effective?

last thing to think about ...now you need to learn and use or train people to use two label programs ( Squares and Dymo).  I believe Dymo's software lets you pull information from a csv file, or you exported items list from Square.  Have Dymo merge the Squares Catalog to print the Barcodes from the SKU or GTIN column along with the Item name, then have your business name placed on the label as fixed text.  Print once and done.... printing 2 times on the labels would be time consuming.  All my labels are printed once and done.

Below are the label types I print, I have 2 sizes of the preprinted ones that I run through the 420T ( Thermal Transfer Printers - these use a ribbon) the rest are printed with Direct Thermal printing on all white labels.  I also have a picture of 2 of my 5 printers that show I have the roll holders behind the printers for larger rolls or fanfold labels.  I found out that for example the Barbell labels I buy are about .04 cents each on a 3" core with 8" diameter (9800 labels per roll), the same labels on a 1" core with 4" diameter are like .06 cents per label (4350 per roll).  Left is 420T Right is 420D both with roll holders behind printersPreprinted label - Scent and Aztec code are printed on the 420TBarbell Label printed on 420D.75 by 1.5 ? printed on 420D1x1.25 printed on a 420D
