Use Bluepoint’s Premium Labels to Avoid Printer Jams with your Laser Printer
If you print your own labels in-house using a laser printer, such as the OKI C650, one of the most annoying pitfalls can be a printer jam. As well as wasting precious time dealing with these jams, it can use up more labels than needed, and it’s also just plain annoying!
But it doesn’t have to be this way, and by Bluepoint’s premium sheeted labels, you can keep a smile on your face!
Jams can affect all types of labels that go through a laser printer, such as self-ties (or loop-lock) labels, tags, stick-in labels and printable bed cards. Let’s take a look at the two main causes of printer jams, and how Bluepoint’s sheeted labels can help.
Static Build-Up
Perhaps the main cause of a printer jam when it comes to sheeted labels is static build-up. Plastic sheets moving across each other often causes a build-up of static electricity and can lead to the label sheets sticking to each other as they’re fed through the printer. More than one sheet at a time can cause printer feed issues and directly lead to a printer jam, leading to downtime or even a call out to a printer engineer.
How can Bluepoint help you? All of our sheeted labels are treated with a premium coating that significantly reduces the static build up during the printing process – greatly reducing the risk of costly printer jams and saving you time and a lot of hassle! And as a bonus, the premium coating provides a superior print finish to ensure striking, full-colour labels with a highly durable finish.
Snagging Labels
I addition to static-related issues, printer jams can also be caused by poorly manufactured labels and tags. Small imperfections around holes or perforations on the sheeted labels can be significant enough to cause labels to stick together and cause two or more sheets to be fed through your printer at one time – leading to the inevitable jam and lost time that comes with it.
At Bluepoint, we only use high quality tooling and make sure that our presses are always in tip-top condition. Our high levels of quality control further ensure the integrity of every single label we produce!
We’re obsessed with manufacturing the best quality labels around and making your life as simple as possible by avoiding those pesky jams!
