Need help choosing a label finish that prints clean and holds up in your environment? Use the buttons above and we will match media to your workflow.
The LX500 performs best when labels are matched to your application (finish, moisture, handling, and required durability). We help you pick materials that print sharp, resist scuffing, and stay consistent from roll to roll.
If you are unsure, contact us and we will confirm the best label finish and setup for your LX500 workflow in Canada.
It depends on your product and environment. Gloss often boosts color vibrancy, while matte can reduce glare for reading and scanning. If you share your application (moisture, handling, oils, refrigeration), we will recommend the best fit.
Pricing can vary by configuration and availability. Message us and we will confirm the current LX500 options and the right bundle for your workflow in Canada, without guessing or pushing extras you do not need.
The LX500 supports media from 0.75 in to 4.25 in wide and works with roll-fed or fan-fold labels. The best results come from inkjet label materials tuned for dye-based inks. Use our compatible collection or ask us to verify a specific material and finish.
Yield depends on label size, coverage, and quality settings. As a practical reference, at about 50% coverage on a 4 x 3 in label, many users see roughly hundreds of labels per cartridge. If you share your label size and artwork coverage, we can estimate usage more accurately.
