The Value Proposition

Offering a 5.1" Digital Press solution in a desktop footprint for short to mid run label production! This printer is an LED Toner-Based Digital Label Press for continuous roll-to-cut or roll-to-roll printing production featuring full color, and included white under print capabilities in one single pass. This unique, 5 station configuration (CMYKW at once) allows you to extend your in-house color printing capabilities from the expected to the extraordinary. Print labels just-in-time and on demand at a moment’s notice. This new breed of print equipment is perfect for short runs with a duty cycle rated at up to 160,000 pages per month, yet rugged enough for longer runs!

This printer is very easy to use - no RIP required, it runs from an enhanced Windows printer driver. Since this is a toner based printer, the resulting labels are water proof. Unlike the IColor 250, this printer does NOT have a built in cutter. So if you are printing on non die cut media, a standalone finisher is required (starting at $16,000). This is a solution for users who outgrow or need more than the IColor 250 can provide.

Revolutionizing Label & Packaging Printing for Evolving Industry Needs

In an era where customers demand shorter runs, quicker turnarounds, and diverse branding and label options, the UNINET IColor 400 Digital Label Press emerges as the ideal solution for the rapidly evolving label and packaging industry. Its user-friendly design avoids the need to outsource or store excess labels. Effortlessly make artwork changes without wastage. Print personalized and highly individual labels directly from your design program, eliminating proofing delays. This press not only meets but exceeds customer expectations, resulting in profitable income streams and an increased customer base.

Superior Efficiency and Performance

The IColor 400 Digital Label Press can print up to 2,000 labels in minutes at speeds of up to 30 feet per minute (9.14 meters per minute, depending on label stock). The result is a finished roll ready to use immediately, drastically decreasing lead time.

Experience unprecedented efficiency in your business with this powerful machine. It boasts a monthly duty cycle of up to 160,000 pages, making it suitable for longer runs. Transitioning to digital has never been simpler.

Increase Productivity and Cost-Effectiveness

Eliminate the need for large, preprinted label orders, expensive plates, and setup fees. The UNINET IColor 400 is ideal for both flexographic printers looking to grow into the short-run market and brand owners looking to make labels in-house. With this adaptable and economical label press, you can increase your output and reduce your costs effectively.

Innovative Cartridge Configuration System

The IColor 400 Desktop Digital Label Press features a unique 5-station cartridge configuration (CMYKW), expanding your in-house color printing capabilities from the ordinary to the extraordinary. Each cartridge integrates the toner and drum units into a single system, simplifying maintenance and operation.

This press allows for selective color disengagement, resulting in greater efficiency and cost savings. If your design includes white but you don't need to print it, you can simply deactivate the white cartridge without removing it from the printer-just flip a switch, and it won't be used for that run. This feature helps save toner usage and reduce drum wear, maximizing the longevity and efficiency of your consumables.

Adaptable Label Stock Options

The IColor 400 Desktop Digital Label Press can print on a variety of label materials, including both standard and bespoke substrates. Examples of materials include coated, uncoated, transparent, opaque, white, colored, glossy, matte, textured, and synthetic.

Its low-fuser temperature technology delivers cheap production printing on numerous substrates, including PET, vinyl, BOPP, foil, and dark/black label material. This versatility allows you to add items and differentiate yourself, highlighting your package and branding and giving you a competitive edge.

Versatile Applications Across Multiple Industries

Create stunning labels for a diverse range of products, including specialty foods, beer and wine, coffee and tea, cosmetics, private labels, chemicals, and more! The IColor 400 can handle various media types thanks to its built-in auto-registration system. This system makes it easy to produce pre-die-cut, kiss-cut, or uncut labels, ensuring that labels remain perfectly aligned from start to finish and delivering consistent quality without the need for constant supervision.

Simplified Drum and Chemical Label Printing

The IColor 400 excels at printing full-color GHS BS5609-compliant chemical and drum labels on demand when using GHS-certified media. It produces labels with exceptional stability and resistance to water, chemicals, fading, and smudging, even under harsh conditions. Its advanced printing technology eliminates the need for preprinted labels and customizes each label with variable information-all in a single pass.
