Epson announced that Leapin’ Lizards Labels, a Colorado-based custom label provider, installed a third Epson SurePress L-4533AW to its fleet. 

The third digital label press expands its volume of label output for small-batch producers across a range of industries, including health and beauty, food and beverage, cannabis, retail, nutraceuticals, and more. 

“We’ve used two SurePress presses for the past four years, so when it came time to bring on another machine, adding a third Epson press was a no-brainer – in large part because of the color consistency we can produce from label to label and run to run,” said Todd Boyt, president, Leapin’ Lizards Labels. “We pride ourselves in creating the highest quality labels for our customers and the Epson SurePress helps us deliver on this. The reproducibility of labels is crucial for our customers and the SurePress can produce consistent labels every single run.”

Leapin’ Lizards serves many businesses in over 35 different industries and depends on the ability to print readable small, thin fonts, text and barcodes. 

The L-4533AW prints on off-the-shelf materials up to 13-inches wide including uncoated, gloss and semi-gloss papers, film, and vinyl, according to Epson.

Epson said its industrial-quality inks are durable, water-based, resin-coated pigment inks that provide superior adhesion, plus water and abrasion resistance on most substrates.

“The SurePress does a great job printing small, readable text, which is something that is really important to our customers in markets like health and beauty that require a lot of information to be included on a small package,” Boyt said.“We have had a great experience with the SurePress models – often running the presses up to 20 hours per day. The presses have a remarkable color gamut that allows us to color match almost anything. And ultimately, the SurePress allows us to deliver great customer service with a fast turnaround time, or as we like to say – turn jobs around as fast as a lizard can snatch up a fly for breakfast.”
