Industrial Inkjet Label Printers

NEW from KTEC Group in 2009


Full Colour Inkjet Label Printer

Brand new from colour labelling specialists VIPColor is the VP485e. A medium duty full colour inkjet label printer from the makers of the highly successful VP2020.

Continuing to use well respected Hewlett Packard inkjet technology the VP485e is able to provide photo quality full colour labels on demand and up to an A4 page in size! Print speed has been significantly improved and the VP485e can now achieve throughput speeds of upto 4 inches per second on draft mode.

The VP485e makes use of individual 28ml cyan, magenta and yellow ink cartridges and a 69ml black cartridge meaning that many labels can be printed before the cartridges need replacing.

Large high visibility indicator lights on the VP485e control panel warn of "low ink" or "out of paper" alerts making the VP485e ideal for busy factory environments.

    Powered label roll rewinder for the VP2020

    Powered label roll rewinder for the VP2020
    A label roll rewinder enables you to neatly wind printed labels back on to a cardboard core rather than allowing them to spill on to the desk or floor. This device is particularly useful if you plan to print large batches of labels. This label roll rewinder is specially designed to work in harmony with the VP2020 colour label printer. It has a unique reversing ability to allow it to cope with the initial backfeeding action of the printer and also operates using a zero-torque rewind action which prevents the labels being tugged through the printer which could cause poor print quality.
