If you’re moving your printing in-house, you may be wondering, “Which commercial label printer is right for my business?” The professionals at Chicago Color Label can help you find the small business label printer that fits your printing needs. We’ve put together a list of popular commercial labeling machines that take into account printing volume, label durability, and more! Explore our guide below, and then reach out to us if you have any questions.
Commercial Labeling Machine Recommendations
- Afinia L502 – With the ability to use both pigment (for water and chemical resistance) or dye inks (for less demanding applications with more vibrant colors), this is a solid, reliable, and versatile entry-level color label printer.
- Afinia L801 – If you’re looking for a commercial label printer that doesn’t require moisture resistance, the Afinia L801 is a top choice. This remains one of our most popular sellers.
- VIP VP750 – This small business label printer is very similar to the beloved Afinia L801 with the exception of being able to use water-resistant inks. This printer is best used for products requiring some level of moisture durability, like beverages, refrigerated/frozen items, and health and beauty products like lotions, oils, and tinctures.
- Afinia L901 / L901 Plus – Built to be cost-effective for high-volume printers that generate 10,000 to 100,000 labels a month, the Afinia L901 delivers the same fast speeds and print quality as the L801 and VP750. What’s more, it comes in both a standard ink model (similar to the Afinia L801 for dry applications) and a “Plus” version for water-resistant inks (identical to the inks used in the VP750).
