Honeywell Printers and Print Engines

 Choose from the full range of high quality Honeywell industrial label printers, desktop printers and print engines. These printers are designed for printing barcodes ready for placing onto products, packaging and outer cartons. They can be used for other types of labels too.

An industrial barcode label printer is a printer designed to produce barcode labels which can be attached to other objects. Barcode printers use either direct thermal or thermal transfer techniques to apply ink to labels. Direct thermal printers use ink ribbons to apply the barcode directly into the label, while thermal transfer printers use heat to blacken the barcode onto the label.

While both are effective, barcodes produced from direct thermal printers are more likely to become unreadable if exposed to elements such as heat, sunlight, and chemicals, and therefore don’t have the longevity of barcodes made with thermal transfer. Because of the longevity of the barcodes produced thermal transfer printers, as well as their overall printing quality and higher expense of production materials, they tend to be more costly than direct thermal printers. Industrial label printers can be used for small business to industrial use, and are most commonly used for shipping products.

Honeywell barcode printers are built to be compliant with the GS1 label requirements. GS1 is a group of gobal non-profit organisations set up to ensure accurate barcoding of products, supply chain equipment and even patients! GS1 licences barcodes for use in huge range of industries and are used over a billion times a day across the world! So for GS1 compliance, you’re in the right place.
