Label Siltters

Label Slitters allow you to print small labels several across on the liner (referred to as "up", such as "3up") and then slit the liner vertically to separate the printed labels. This greatly increases your print head life and ribbon usage efficiency. Label slitters can be used either "in-line" or "off-line". In "in-line" use, the slitter is placed between the printer output and a label rewinder. In "off-line" use, the slitter is placed between an unwinder and a rewinder. Off-line slitting is recommended for production work or for use with three or more blades.
