The
UniNet iColor 700 digital label press is a worthy competitor to
Primera CX1200 - outshining it in speed, flexibility, variability,
and cost.
Concord,
Ontario (September 3, 2015) -- The Primera
CX1200 digital label press, and its CX1000
sibling, is widely considered the best industrial color
label press. A new player has emerged, the UniNet
iColor 700, and it outshines the Primera CX1200 in:
speed, flexibility, variability, and operating cost.
Both
are laser label printers. Powered by LED laser technology, the iColor
700 operates at a lower operating temperature, allowing for a much
larger selection of laser label materials. Jim Brown from Optimedia
Labs said, "The iColor 700 prints on paper, tag, vinyl,
polypropylene and polyester label
stock - and more. The Primera CX1200's media choices are much more
limited."
The
UniNet iColor 700 is nearly twice as fast as the Primera CX1200,
printing at 30 feet per minute (the CX1200 is 16.25 feet per minute).
Faster print jobs save both time and money.
Other
advantages include:
• Matrix
removal - The iColor 700 prints label media with or without the
matrix. Primera's CX1200/CX1000 requires purchasing additional
equipment, like the FX1000
matrix removal system, to remove the matrix.
• Media
width - The UniNet iColor 700 prints on media from 3 to 8.5
inches wide while the Primera
CX1200/CX1000 only prints on 8.5-inch media. For
example, when printing a 4x3 label on the CX1200/CX1000, a single
label spans the 8.5-inch media, resulting in waste. The iColor 700
can print two across on 8.5-inch media or one across using a 6-inch
media width, reducing media costs.
• Glossy
GHS printing - Both label printers can print GHS
BS5609 labels, but the iColor 700 can do so on
glossy polypropylene labels for a nicer look. The Primera CX1200 and
CX1000's higher temperature would melt glossy polypropylene labels.
• Variable
data - The iColor
700 has an option for printing variable data,
such as unique serial numbers, barcodes, and product information, on
labels in one step. The Primera CX1200/CX1000 does not support
variable data.
• White
toner option - This allows for printing
white graphics and text on clear or black label stock. The Primera
CX1200 and CX1000 do not have a white toner option.
• Cost
- The UniNet iColor 700 is about $3,000 cheaper than the Primera
CX1200. "It's not just the lower purchase price," Brown
pointed out. "The UniNet iColor 700 will produce label jobs
faster and at lower cost due to reduced media wastage. Plus, the
toners on the iColor 700 are also cheaper since the drum and toners
are two separate units. Primera's toner and drum are in a single
unit, costing more to replace."
