“I am pleased to work with Lofton Label.

The Afinia Label L801 Color Label Printer is powered by Memjet technology, which gives it a print speed of 60 feet per minute and an industry-leading ink cost of less than 3 cents for a 4” x 6” label with 75 percent coverage. This is a fraction of the cost of other inkjet label printers. The L801 supports 3 print modes: Roll to Roll, Roll to Cut, Print & Hold. The R635 Color Label Printer features dry LED toner technology and is certified to create BS5609 and GHS labels.
