Printing and Finishing with Primera Technology, the world’s leading manufacturer  of label printers

Primera Technology, Inc. is the world’s leading manufacturer of CD/DVD/Blu-ray Disc publishing equipment and specialty color label printers.

Primera® was founded in September of 1998 on a tradition of innovation. With group headquarters in Plymouth, Minnesota and offices in Wiesbaden, Germany and Hong Kong, Primera’s products are distributed worldwide in over 179 countries. As global operating company, Primera established in the year 2000 a central office for the EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) region, called Primera Technology Europe. Primera Europe is responsible for marketing, sales, logistics, support and service in the EMEA region. Primera started off with printing solutions for optical media, but over time has moved into disc publishing equipment for printing and burning optical media, label printing, labeling accessories and, most recently, medical slide printing. The company has significant plans in place, which will see it develop new innovative products and distribute them into a variety of new industries, with many future developments to look forward to.

Primera’s mission is to produce technologically superior products that offer a high degree of customer satisfaction and value while conducting business affairs with unparalleled integrity, courtesy and professionalism.

Finding a cost-effective and convenient way to produce high quality, full-color labels just got easy. Instead of ordering large quantities of labels from external label manufacturers, which can be expensive, Primera’s printing solutions offer an alternative. With Primera, you can easily produce short-run, full-color product labels that are cost effective, either for seasonal products or for personalized labels for special events, for example a commemorative wine for a wedding or a company celebrating an anniversary or milestone in business.

An ideal printer to enable manufacturers to print individual full-colour labels is the LX900e Color Label Printer, Primera Technology’s fastest inkjet colour label printer.

Separate ink cartridges for cyan, magenta, yellow and black keep operating costs low since only one colour at a time needs to be replaced. The semi-permanent print head utilises all-new technology to produce razor-sharp text, brilliant graphics and photo-realistic printing. It’s the perfect solution for everyone who wants to design and produce their own product labels.

Typical applications include product labels for coffee, wine, water, bakery, confectionary, meat, cheese and hundreds of other specialty and gourmet foods. LX900e is also ideal for private labeling, test marketing, pre-press proofing, industrial product hazardous goods marking and retail labeling.

CX1000e Colour Label Printer is designed for in-house production of professional-quality product labels. It is ideal for producing short- to medium-run jobs of pre-die cut label material in various sizes. With 2400 dpi print resolution and print speed of 5 meters per minute, CX1000e delivers professional full-color print quality along with high-speed production.

CX1000e prints onto many different laser-qualified label materials including pressure-sensitive plain papers, white and clear polyesters and more. A wide range of approved matte, semi-gloss, high-gloss and specialty food and beverage label materials are available. Primera has also qualified an all-new selection of eco-friendly substrates that are made of up to 100% post-consumer waste.

Printed labels are waterproof, highly scratch, smudge and tear-resistant. Ink is also highly UV-resistant so printed labels can be used indoors or outside. Many of the most popular sizes are in-stock and ready for immediate shipment. Custom sizes are also readily available.

CX1200e is the perfect solution for service bureaus and a broad range of manufacturers who need to print from just a few labels to tens of thousands of labels at a time. Digital label printing has many advantages versus other printing technologies, including the elimination of plates, set-up, make-ready and clean-up. With a digital press, simply import the images, apply a step-and-repeat with the included software, key in a quantity and press “Enter” on the keyboard.

FX1200e is an off-line label production machine that accepts up to 305 mm (12”) O.D. rolls of printed output from digital label presses. It “finishes” the printed output with several different operations including: lamination, digital die-cutting, waste matrix removal, slitting and rewinding.

Utilizing Primera’s patent-pending QuadraCut™ technology, virtually any size and shape of label can be produced including complicated contour cuts, without the need to purchase expensive rotary or flat dies.
