Solving the Labor Shortage: A User-Friendly Digital Label Press

Simplicity is at the heart of the LP-1.

This label press was designed to be intuitive and approachable, even if you haven't printed labels before.

CEO Kevin Davis told WhatTheyThink, “Given some of the challenges in the labor force and finding experienced people to run label presses, we wanted to make sure that anybody could run this. From the fact that the machine basically webs itself all the way to an interface that’s incredibly easy to use, this is the easiest label press to operate in the building—I guarantee it.”

Whether you are looking for an addition to your pre-existing fleet or just getting started in your label printing business venture, the LP-1 allows anyone to become a printer technician, with minimal training and onboarding covered by the SnapPress LP-1 team.

Minimizing Downtime: User-Serviceable Maintenance & Support

Keeping your press running shouldn't slow your business down.
