In today’s culture, businesses must keep up with the newest technology in order to stay relevant with their consumers. Every business can benefit from the use of an EBS printer for labeling and creating barcodes. This handy little tool has a variety of uses and will make life and labeling a lot easier.
What is an EBS Printer?
EBS printers are handheld inkjet printers that have the ability to print on many different materials. EBS printers make it possible to print directly on:
- Plastic
- Paper
- Wood
- Metal
- Glass
- Concrete
- Textiles such as shirts or blankets
- Cardboard
- Shrinkwrap
- Tape
You will no longer have to go through the hassle of lining up your print on a label. You can get rid of labels completely and print directly on whatever you need to. These hand jet coders replace outdated marking tools such as stencils, oil boards, spray paint, stamps, ink rollers, and markers. These handheld units can print letters, numbers, barcodes, and logos up to 2.2 inches tall.
How Can My Company Benefit From Using an EBS Printer?
When your company implements an EBS printer, it increases efficiency, improves accuracy, and automates your labeling process. This device allows for fast, high-quality printing anywhere you may need it. The speed with which it functions will help keep costs down and save you and your employees time and hassle. You can now quickly and easily mark your products with any details you may need, such as:
- Lot number
- Batch number
- Expiration date
- Bar code
- Company logo
- Size or dimensions
- Quantity
Is An EBS Printer Easy to Use?
This lightweight EBS printer is as easy to use as a label maker. You don’t have to be computer savvy to use this handheld tool. The touchscreen on the unit is user-friendly. Simply type in the information you want to print, and you’ll be on your way.
You also have multiple colors to choose from and different ink types. You can print in red, blue, white, yellow, and black ink. However, once you use one ink color, you should not switch colors on that unit without proper cleaning. There are different ink options to choose from based on your needs. The types of ink available are:
Acetone-based Ink
- The most common type of ink is acetone-based.
- Durable and water-resistant.
- Not meant for outdoor use and exposure to the sun’s rays.
MEK UV Ink
- Can take direct exposure to sunlight on nearly any surface
- Only available in black
Ethanol Ink
- Food grade ink
- Available in colors including blue, red, and brown
How is the Battery Life of an EBS Printer?
The battery life of an EBS printer is typically long enough that you shouldn’t have to worry about your unit not running due to a low battery. You should not need to charge the unit until 16 to 20 hours of use. At this point, a charge indicator light will illuminate. Be sure only to use the provided wall charger to charge your EBS printer. The unit should be fully charged after two to three hours.
What Type of Maintenance Does an EBS Printer Require?
You may be used to a big, clunky copy machine that is always getting jammed. These old machines require an expensive service contract to keep them working. EBS printers are easy to maintain. A daily flush with a simple cleaning solution is all that is needed to keep these printers in prime condition.
