Overview

Professional Print Quality at High Speeds

The L801’s combination of print quality, speed, and ink cost is tough to beat.

The L801 is a Memjet-powered industrial inkjet printer that is ideal for short- to medium-range print runs for prime and secondary labelling applications. It prints on continuous or die-cut stock from 2 to 8.5 inches in width, in full colour, and at speeds of up to 60 feet per minute. Super-fine resolution makes for crisp text and barcodes, even at very small sizes. This detail, combined with vivid colours and rich blacks, makes labels look sharp and vibrant. The L801 is also compatible with a wide range of paper, polyester, polypropylene, and vinyl label stocks.

The Plus model offers increased water and moisture resistance1.

Watershield-printed labels are significantly more resistant to the effects of prolonged moisture exposure than conventional dye-based inkjet labels. This makes the L801 Plus perfect for applications such as chilled beverages, foods, chemical or pharmaceutical products.

This new technology also produces more neutral greys and uses more responsibly sourced inks2.

1 Water resistance can be media dependent. Always test your printed label to be sure it meets your requirements.
2 Watershield™ inks do not contain chemicals that are harmful to humans or the environment.

Minimize ongoing ink costs.

Cost per label should be as important as printer cost when investing in a label printer. These ongoing costs are minimized by the L801’s industry-leading ink cost, which can be easily calculated using the included software. It holds 1.25 litres of ink to support large runs and has easy-access doors for fast and simple media and ink replacement. An optional powered rewinder makes printing to finished rolls simple.

Roll-to-roll label printing

Print from the L801 - the best color label printer for businesses

The optional rewinder pairs perfectly with the L801 to allow for continuous, roll-to-roll label production. Easily handle rolls up to 210mm in outside diameter for high-volume jobs and reduced media costs. It’s a recommended addition for companies that experience high usage or heavy-duty jobs.

Once rewinding is complete, simply remove the core holder and completed roll. Simple.

Memjet Waterfall Technology

The L801 Industrial Colour Label Printer is a digital label printer that uses Memjet technology, allowing you to print high-impact, full-colour output at up to 18 m/min. Memjet’s stationary “waterfall” printhead technology allows paper to move quickly through the printer, while maintaining excellent print resolution.

High quality & resolution

Using the L801 industrial colour label printer, you can print at up to 1600 x 1600 dpi for vivid, eye-catching labels. By using CMYKK (two black ink cartridges), the L801 offers exceptional colour and rich blacks, giving you the ability to print with better contrast.
