Commercial Printer

Commercial printers have a couple distinct advantages over desktop laser or inkjet printers. While personal printers are becoming the next technological wave of the future,

How much is it going to cost you to print all those large pages? Cost per page is one considerable factor in printing, especially if you have to buy ink jet cartridges or printer toner for many large printing jobs. Commercial printers can help cut down those printing costs. Printing speed also is another feature that sets desktop systems apart from commercial printers; many commercial printers can spit out over a hundred pages per minute while the latest desktop laser printers and inkjet printers can only churn out about 25 to 30 pages per minute.

Commercial printers are designed to handle large scale, specific tasks. This is one reason why they cost less per page to operate and why they have such a high printing speed. The only setback for commercial printers is that they require detailed, specific file preparation before you can begin your printing job. It can be complicated to set up large printing projects on commercial printers, but the super fast print time makes up for it in the end.

The Zebra Printer 2746e is a basic bar code commercial printer that provides an affordable print solution to companies that require batch labeling. It has a sturdy steel enclosed case that can face warehouse environments but also has a sleek design that could fit in on any office. This printer model is ideal for postal, manufacturing, and distribution, for uses such as receipt, payment, shipping, and field service.

As you can see, while the 2746e offers speed and bulk printing, its capability for variable printing is minor compared to the standard desktop printer. What it allows though is a cost effective solution for prints that require neither color nor graphics. Another commercial printer, the Zebra Printer R2844-Z is a smart printer that allows printing on an assortment of media such as wristbands, labels, and even cards.

New commercial printer designs are changing into a more capable multi-feature design. Like the HP Designjet 10000 commercial printer, which can print a maximum length of 164 feet and 104 inches in width. Of course, such machines are only practical for commercial institutions that deal in graphics for ads and posters.
