New Laminate Mode in Primera’s LX610 Color Label Printer Makes Labels Waterproof & Outdoor-Durable

The New “Laminate Mode” in LX610 Color Label Printer makes Waterproof, Outdoor-Durable Labels in Any Size or Shape.

Lamination Mode is now a selection in the label printer machine’s PrintHub™ status monitor. Here’s how it works:

1. In PrintHub, select “Laminate Mode.”

2. Send a print/cut file to the printer as usual

3. The printer prints the image, feeds it out the front of the printer, and stops

4. Apply an optically clear, 4-mil polyester laminate patch by hand

5. Push any button on the control panel to pull the printed image back into the cutter

6. The now-laminated image is cut to size and shape — any shape — with the built-in X/Y cutting blade

7. Label dispenses out the front and can then be cut and stacked into individual, laminated, custom-cut sheets.

Lamination is ideal for labels that must be waterproof, not just water-resistant. These applications include labels for cosmetics and bath products, wine, beer, distilled spirits, juices, shampoos, window decals, bumper stickers, signs, and more.

Primera’s dye and pigment inks work equally well with lamination film. Pigment ink with a synthetic label substrate is recommended for outdoor applications where labels are exposed to water and UV light. Initially, Primera will offer glossy lamination film. Later, in Q3 2021, a matte-finish clear laminate is also expected to be available.
