Weber Packaging Solutions has introduced its new Epson ColorWorks GP-C831 inkjet printer, an industrial-strength, high-speed label printer that eases the printing of GHS large-format drum and chemical labels. GHS stands for the Globally Harmonized System of classifying and labeling chemicals. It’s an emerging, worldwide mandate that strives to standardize chemical labeling and relabeling. The on-demand ColorWorks inkjet printer from Weber features label print speeds up to 16.5 pages per minute to print on pressure-sensitive labels up to 8” x 22”.
Unlike dye-based inks, the ColorWorks unit utilizes pigment-based inks that firmly bind to label facesheets to provide outstanding print resistance to chemicals and water that could result in print fading or smudging. The label printer is designed for commercial environments, is dust and water resistant, and is virtually maintenance free. The unit uses four CMYK ink cartridges, and is capable of printing spot and process color images. The ColorWorks printer operates with Weber’s exclusive Legitronic® labeling software, which simplifies label formatting, editing and printing. Weber also manufactures a variety of blank, pressure-sensitive label materials for use with the system.
