What can I use a label printer for?

A label printer can support you with both printing labels, stickers, name tags, posters, and much more, and can be used in several industries and businesses; it all comes down to what your needs are. A label printer can both support you in your warehouse, for printing freight labels, and in your store with marking products.

Furthermore, you can design and print your own labels with the unique label print software, Bartender Label Software.


Label printers for Direct Thermal (DT) labels

A label printer with Direct Thermal denotes what type of label material it’s able to print on. With DT, the colour lies within the label, and the printer just needs to heat the label to make the text and colour visible. Direct Thermal is less durable and is especially suitable for freight labels. Below we have listed our recommended label printers for printing Direct Thermal labels.
