SnapPress LP-1: Revolutionizing Short Run Digital Label Printing

In this article, written and sponsored by SnapPress, learn how the SnapPress LP-1 is reshaping short-run digital label printing. No other label press has brought HP Inkjet technology together with a Xitron RIP and color profiling by Schilling Inkjet Consultants. The LP-1 has an incredibly easy-to-use interface that puts professional label printing power in the hands of any user.

In the realm of short-run digital label printing, SnapPress emerges as a leader with its revolutionary LP-1 label press. Combining decades of industry expertise with cutting-edge technology, SnapPress introduces a game-changing solution designed to meet the evolving needs of label printing businesses, both large and small.

Who is SnapPress?

Although SnapPress is a new brand, it carries a legacy of excellence inherited from Allen Datagraph Systems, a seasoned player in the label business for over 20 years. With a strategic focus on research and development, SnapPress embarked on a journey to redefine the landscape of short-run digital label printing. The culmination of this endeavor is the LP-1, a product of collaboration with industry giants Hewlett Packard, Xitron, and Schilling Inkjet Consultants.

What is the LP-1?

The LP-1 stands at the forefront of innovation in short-run digital label printing. Leveraging the proven HP FI-1000 pigment ink print engine, this press addresses critical needs voiced by the label community. With a competitive price point, user-friendly operation, compact footprint, and compatibility with various media types up to 12-in. wide, the LP-1 promises to revolutionize label printing efficiency and versatility.

Field Testing and Reliability:

The LP-1 boasts a robust design backed by extensive field testing. With units already deployed at customer sites, SnapPress ensures quality and reliability. Building on the legacy of Allen Datagraph Systems, SnapPress instills confidence through a comprehensive parts and labor warranty, with several additional service and maintenance plans available.

Technical Advancements:

One of the LP-1’s standout features is its ease of use for operators of any skill level. Professional label makers love the intuitive user interface and high-quality labels for their short-run clients, and brands looking to bring label printing in-house are amazed at the ease of use (the machine basically webs itself) and the flexibility it provides for new users.

SnapPress engineers also collaborated with industry experts to ensure seamless performance across various media types, from papers to plastics and matte to metallics. Moreover, the LP-1 distinguishes itself from competitors by offering a customized Xitron RIP for enhanced color profiling and spot color simulation like nothing in its class. Our engineers devised a proprietary algorithm with the ability to print continuous labels without minimum gap mandates between frames (a first for HP FI-1000). Furthermore, our new upgrades, such as compatibility to print full bleed on die-cut media, further enhance the LP-1’s versatility, ensuring it remains at the forefront of technological advancements. Attendees of the New England Cannabis Convention in Boston checked out the first model of SnapPress LP-1 with this new feature on March 22–23, where SnapPress LP-1 was introduced to the cannabis industry.

Service and Support:

SnapPress understands the importance of comprehensive service plans to ensure uninterrupted operations. With user-friendly features facilitating easy maintenance and the ability to replace the main print module swiftly, downtime is minimized, guaranteeing maximum uptime and optimal productivity. Additionally, SnapPress offers various service plans tailored to meet diverse customer needs, ensuring peace of mind and operational efficiency.

Cost-Effectiveness:

The LP-1 not only excels in performance but also in affordability. Priced at only $80,000— approximately one-third the cost of some competing label presses—SnapPress offers exceptional value for businesses seeking high-quality, cost-effective label printing solutions that don’t take up one-half of your manufacturing floor or require a staff of expert printers to operate and maintain.

Empowering Small Businesses:

The SnapPress LP-1 is a perfect fit for small businesses. With its affordable price point and user-friendly operation, the LP-1 opens doors for small-scale label printing operations, enabling businesses to bring label production in-house without breaking the bank. Whether it’s a boutique artisanal product or a local startup, the LP-1 offers the flexibility and quality needed to create professional-grade labels tailored to small business needs.

Moreover, the LP-1’s compact footprint and standalone operation make it ideal for businesses with limited space and resources. Its ease of use means that even businesses without extensive printing experience can quickly master label production, reducing reliance on external printing services and streamlining operations.

Industry Expansion:

As mentioned earlier, SnapPress was introduced to the cannabis industry at the New England Cannabis Convention (NECANN) in Boston on March 22-23. Furthermore, we are excited to announce that SnapPress LP-1 Digital Label Press will be showcased at the Craft Brewers Conference® and BrewExpo America® in Las Vegas from April 21st to 24th (Booth #227). These events provide us with an excellent opportunity to introduce the LP-1 to the brewery industry, where label printing plays a crucial role in product branding and compliance. With its versatility, reliability, and affordability, the LP-1 is poised to revolutionize label printing in these dynamic industries, empowering businesses to meet their labeling needs efficiently and effectively.
