 Thermal Printer Cutters Can Really Save Time

Cutters Can Really Save You Time and Money

Remember when you were given your first pair of scissors in grade school and you were so excited. You thought they were the coolest thing at the time. However, as you got older, cutting stuff with scissors switched from being cool to just being tedious work.

Well, the same goes for thermal label printers. At first manually ripping and tearing may not seem so bad, however after the 10th billion label you have to tear you’ll be thinking differently.




No worries though; easy solution. All you have to do is add a cutter to your thermal label printers. This simple piece of machinery could save your business valuable time and money.

Let’s look at an example — If a thermal label printer prints a 4”x2” label at 6” for a 24 hour period, it would create 259,200 labels within that period. It would take you 3 days to tear those labels individually. That is 3 full days that you have somebody tied up cutting labels every day you use the machine. Not only that it is also tiring work.

So, by the end of a business week with constant use of the machine, you would have 10 more days of tearing and a lot of tired employees.

Why waste the time when there is a simple addition to your thermal label printer that will eliminate the issue. All the thermal label printer manufacturers offer this accessory. So toss aside the scissors and pick up a thermal printer cutter and gain back those weeks of wasted efficiency.
