Primera Label Printer Designed for In-House Printing

PLYMOUTH, Minn.—Primera Technology, Inc., a leading manufacturer of specialty printers, announced shipping of its new CX1000 Color Label Printer. Designed for in-house production of professional-quality product labels, CX1000 is ideal for producing short- to medium-run jobs from 50 to 5,000 labels per roll in various sizes. With 2400 dpi print resolution and print speed of 16.25 feet per minute (5 meters/minute), CX1000 delivers professional full-color print quality along with high-speed production.

CX1000 prints onto many different laser-qualified label materials including pressure-sensitive plain papers, white and clear polyesters, and more. A wide range of approved matte, semi-gloss, high-gloss, and specialty food and beverage label materials are available. Primera has also qualified an all-new selection of eco-friendly substrates that are made of up to 100 percent post-consumer waste.

Printed labels are waterproof and highly scratch, smudge, and tear-resistant. Ink is also highly UV-resistant so printed labels can be used indoors or outside. Many of the most popular pre-diecut sizes are in-stock and ready for immediate shipment. Custom sizes are also readily available.

“Primera’s new CX1000 is a best-in-class solution for manufacturers and distributors who want to produce higher quantities of their own high-quality labels in-house,” said Mark D. Strobel, Primera’s vice president of sales and marketing. “Producing your own labels on CX1000 not only saves time and is far more convenient, but it almost always saves you money, too.”

Typical applications for the CX1000 include:

• Specialty, organic and gourmet foods and beverages
• Coffee roasters and specialty teas

• Cosmetics and personal care products
