If you are pricing a label printer for a shop or a small online brand in India, it helps to know what a budget model actually includes and where its limits are. Here is a breakdown using our own pocket model as an example.
The price
The PackForge Bluetooth thermal label printer (model PFA-MPR-H-K) is listed at Rs 4,419 + Rs 795 GST. It is sold direct by the supplier with a GST invoice, which matters if you claim input tax credit.
What is in the box
- The printer
- Ten 58 mm thermal rolls, so you can start printing on day one
Key specs
| Spec | Value |
|---|---|
| Print method | Direct thermal, no ink or ribbon |
| Resolution | 304 DPI |
| Roll width | 58 mm |
| Connection | Bluetooth 5.0 to a phone app |
| Battery | 750 mAh, USB Type-C charging |
Running cost
Because it is direct thermal, there is no ink cartridge or ribbon to replace. After the bundled rolls run out, paper rolls are the only cost.
Who it is not for
This is a 58 mm printer for stickers, price tags and small product labels. It is not a 4x6 inch courier or shipping label printer. If most of your volume is courier labels, budget for a wider shipping label printer instead.
