Durable Applications
Pigment-Based Labels
Pigment-based prints are highly resistant to moisture, abrasion, sun-fading and extreme temperatures.
This makes the L502 suitable for packaging requiring GHS compliance, as well as products exposed to high levels of moisture.

Lower Ink Waste
Replace only the colour that runs out
The L502 offers strong value for small- to mid-sized label applications. Separate CMYK ink cartridges contribute to a lower cost per label because only the colours that are empty need to be replaced.
Competing systems using tri-colour cartridges may require the entire cartridge to be replaced when only one colour is empty.
Because most businesses repeatedly print labels with similar colour usage, replacing unused ink in a tri-colour cartridge can become costly over time.
