How do I choose a suitable handheld inkjet printer for my business?

In order to make an informed choice when selecting a handheld printer, there are several things you can take into account.

 

• Printing Needs

The first thing you can take into consideration is what you want the printer to do.

For example, if the only use you will ever have for the printer is to print expiration date or logo on carton box, you will not need a BENTSAI B3 printer that can do variable database printing, and this could greatly reduce the cost for buying a machine as well.

 

• Applicable Printing Surfaces and Ink Cartridges

Check the materials that you’re going to print on before purchase, confirm whether it is porous or non-porous and select a printer that can apply to such kind of materials.

Generally, water-based ink cartridges (apply to BENTSAI B1, B2 and B3 printer) are only suitable for porous surfaces such as paper, carton box, wood, fabric, cloth, cement wall, etc.

The solvent-based ink (apply to BENTSAI B2 and B3 printer) is quick drying and water proof for both porous and non-porous materials like plastics, glass, PVC, aluminum foil, concrete, ceramics, metal and even stone.

Another important factor to consider is how the brand handles the issue of ink cartridges. With OEM cartridges, the print quality, ink capacity and after-sales service are guaranteed, which are very important to business owners who have high requirements on print results.

While although some aftermarket cartridges are sold cheap, the chances for bad printing and incompatible are higher, and the costs in the long run is not cheap either.

 

• Height of Font and Printing Size

Printing size is another point you need to look at. For example, if you’re going to print some logos on your product or packaging with a handheld printer, you’d better consult with the printer supplier about the maximum printing size before purchase.

Here at BENTSAI, the height of font for 6105 series handheld inkjet printer is between 2.5mm to 12.7mm.

 

• Price

Depending on the functions and features, most of the handheld inkjet printers selling online are at the price range between $400 to $2000, and some suppliers offer wholesale price to business customers who purchase in bulk units.

 

• Operation System

As a portable inkjet printer, convenience and accessibility is at the core of its existence. The operation system should be straight forward and user friendly, it should have wide ranges of printing contents and language options to meet different printing needs around the world.

 

• Pre and After-sales Services

Printers from various brand may share the same printing functions, but pre and after-sales services are what makes a brand distinguished. A good supplier can recommend the right products and solutions before you buy, give extensive information and videos, and provide reliable after-sales guarantee and complete product use and maintenance instructions after your purchase.
