Small Label Runs Are Now Profitable

September 20, 2016 By Afinia Label

How Can Large-Format Shops Profit from Small Label Runs?

“Can you help me make my small label runs profitable?” This is an issue for large-format shops who get customer inquiries for labels. Usually, the labels are printed and cut on a wide-format printer/plotter, hand weeded, and in some instances, the labels are taped together to create rolls.
