Things To Keep In Mind When Buying Date Code Printer

By Ronald Jackson


If you are a business owner and your business deals with goods, then you will need a printer that is reliable in printing labels, expiry dates, serial numbers, and other important information. Do not just settle for any printer. You will need a machine print that can provide readable and long lasting prints on your products. Here are things to keep in mind when buying a date code printer.

Reliability. This is not just about making sure that the machine will last a long time. You need to know what is its average MTBF or mean time between failures so you have an idea to when could your machine fail. You can see this on the specifications of your device, although most suppliers are able to cite this when ask.

How fast would you like the printing process be. A smart buyer would check what is the line speed of that certain product to know if it is fast enough and be able to meet your demands. How you choose would be dependent on your needs. It should be must faster compared to your needs so you can still increase the production when demand will change.

You can find coders that can store up 1,000 messages and can print fur production lines. You know that the machine is right when it can both cover your coding requirements and can scale.
