What are the benefits of Pre-Printed Cable markers?
Using a pre-printed service to print cable markers can be an appropriate choice if you are needing high volume labelling, speciality labelling or have budget constraints. Both printing-on-demand and pre-printed labels have unique advantages and disadvantages, therefore the best option for you will depend on the requirements of your application. Below are some of the most important benefits of using a pre-printed service:
Save Money
Printing-on-demand can be a costly task if you are needing to print lots of labels – label printers, ribbons, software and other accessories can be high in price, especially if you are needing to print on different material types. In comparison, using a pre-printed service means you do not have to pay for any additional consumables, making it the cheaper option if you are needing to print thousands of labels.
Save Time
In many facilities, there may be a lack of resources available to print on demand. For example, if you had a small team it may become difficult to set up, print different cable labels and do maintenance work on a label printer, especially if the team is focused on other tasks. Therefore, in situations like this, it may be more practical to get your cable markers pre-printed as it removes the need to dedicate time to printing, meaning you will have time free to prioritise more important tasks.
Ease of Use
Similar to time restraints, many facilities do not have the capability to print on demand as the label printer and software may be too difficult to set up, update and maintain. For many companies, it can be a lot easier to outsource printing requirements as it’s easy to do, efficient and can be less stressful than printing on demand.
