How Digital Label Printing Measures Up to Commercial Press Standards

SnapPress LP-1 Digital Label Press

As technology evolves, so do the tools available to printers and manufacturers. Digital label printers offer new possibilities alongside traditional commercial presses, providing flexibility and efficiency for a range of applications. 

Let’s explore the facts behind digital label printing and how it complements existing commercial printing methods.

Bridging Innovation and Tradition: The SnapPress LP-1 Advantage

From perfecting color accuracy to offering high-quality outputs, the LP-1 is designed to work alongside traditional commercial printing presses, focused on its ability to deliver consistent, reliable, and vibrant results. All while printing short runs.

Color Accuracy in Digital Label Printing

We feel your pain… You’ve spent countless hours designing the perfect label, and the colors you chose should not be compromised when it’s time to hit print. You’ve scrutinized the palette, and, thus, don’t want the finished product to leave a bitter taste on your tongue. Color consistency is crucial, not only for branding but also for ensuring uniformity across products.

Here’s the news you’ve been waiting for: Our SnapPress LP-1 can match Pantone shades, guaranteeing that your colors appear just as vibrant on print as they do on screen. This precision is made possible by the LP-1’s CMYK printing capability, which allows for more accurate and precise color matching, bringing your design to life without any color discrepancies. If you’re a believer in the sentiment around “talk is cheap,” we’d be happy to send you samples and/or walk you through a demo that showcases these very claims. 

The The Role of the LP-1’s Built-in RIP (Raster Image Processor)

Let’s nerd out for a second here…

A Raster Image Processor (RIP) is a vital component that converts your design files into a series of dots that the printer can decode and print. This process ensures that the printer understands the exact color combinations and image details, resulting in a flawless print every time without fail. The LP-1’s built-in RIP technology allows it to handle complex color schemes and fine details, offering commercial printers the same high-level precision as traditional printing presses but with more efficiency and control. That’s winning on myriad fronts. 

Durable, Vibrant Inks for Long-Lasting Prints

The SnapPress LP-1 uses HP Aqueous Pigment Inks, which are certified for their resistance to light, water, and abrasion. This ensures that the printed colors will not fade, smudge, or dull over time, maintaining the vibrant quality of the print. A lasting impression, if you will! 

For commercial printers, this guarantees results that stick and align perfectly with branding standards and customer expectations, reducing the risk of reprints due to color degradation and enhancing the overall durability of labels and packaging.

Print Quality Across Runs

Achieving the perfect print every time is no longer just a dream; it’s a reality with the SnapPress LP-1. Traditional printing presses often experience slight variations between print runs due to press alignment issues and plate wear, resulting in inconsistencies and wasted labels. And, if we’re being honest, they’re less efficient for shorter runs and create much more waste.

With the LP-1’s advanced digital label printing technology, these challenges are a thing of the past. It guarantees precise, consistent quality across every print run, making it the ideal solution for commercial printers seeking reliable quality across runs.

Expand Your Offerings with the LP-1: No Plates, No Problem

Commercial printers looking to expand their capabilities should consider incorporating a digital label press like the LP-1 into their existing fleet. It’s perfect for shorter runs without compromising quality (and, in some cases, exceeding in that very category). SnapPress LP-1 not only delivers the high-quality results that traditional printing presses are known for but also offers significant advantages in terms of efficiency. 

With the SnapPress LP-1, printers can accommodate short-run jobs and quick turnaround times without the hassle of changing plates or making complex adjustments. This flexibility allows printers to respond faster to customer demands, increase their product offerings, and maintain top-tier print quality for every job, all while reducing operational complexity.
