Ready to go in 40 seconds!

Fed up with old-school, high-volume label printing? Brady Corporation’s new i7500 printer offers various solutions. It reimagines 76mm core high precision label printing, requiring no calibration, formatting, ribbon fumbling, or trial and error. It also doesn’t produce any waste.

A gamechanger for the electronics, electrical, manufacturing, and laboratory industries, the BradyPrinter i7500 automatically adjusts all of its settings when new consumables are loaded. Ready to print in just 40 seconds, the printer also removes all calibration waste by printing each label correctly from the get-go.

Set up, don’t touch?

To date, the approach to high-volume, high-precision thermal heat transfer 76mm (three-inch) core label printing in most industries has almost always been “set it up and don’t touch”. Crucial for traceability and compliance, yet excruciating to set up and calibrate, the 76mm core label printing experience has been a notorious pain point for many manufacturing, electronics, electrical, and laboratory industries.

“The new BradyPrinter i7500 neither requires users to adjust sensors or heat settings, nor to define label dimensions or waste labels in calibration”, says Ömer Adisen, product manager for benchtop printers and software at Brady Corporation. “We call it LabelSense. The technology reduces the frustrating trial and error of manual printer calibration to print readiness in just 40 seconds. That includes loading Brady consumables, designed so they can only be loaded the right way.”

The new BradyPrinter i7500 with LabelSense technology thus makes high-precision 76mm core label printing a lot more intuitive and efficient. There is no need to maintain multiple printers just to avoid the classic consumable and calibration hassle. “All optimal settings are already preloaded and the printer automatically recognises every Brady consumable. The i7500 offers considerable print flexibility by enabling users to switch from printed circuit board labels to rating plates, raised profile labels, and cable sleeves – or between relevant specialised laboratory labels – in just 40 seconds. Even when loading the tiniest 3.18mm QR-coded labels, the i7500 prints the first label right, reducing waste and supporting sustainable label printing practices,” Adisen elaborates.

In addition to auto-calibration, the BradyPrinter i7500 can print 76mm core labels from any manufacturer in manual mode. “When considering a switch to the new label printing experience provided by the BradyPrinter i7500, there is no need to devalue current label stock. The BradyPrinter i7500 can print any 76mm core labels, from any manufacturer, with great speed and precision,” Adisen reassures potential clients. 

Software compatible

When combined with Brady’s Workstation label design, the software instantly recognises the dimensions of loaded Brady consumables for fast and intuitive label creation. Next to label design protection, Brady Workstation also includes an easy scan-to-print app and a data automation app to print labels at the right time with the right enterprise resource planning-system data. The BradyPrinter i7500 supports print languages like ZPL, and can print labels via other label design software as well. 

Premium printing redefined

“The new BradyPrinter i7500 defines a new premium high-precision printing experience for 76mm core labels,” says Adisen. “Fully automated calibration enables printing on different consumables within 40 seconds. Supported by a clear user interface on a large on-board screen, the i7500 prints a wide range of labels without any hassle,” he reiterates. “We can provide a hands-on demo at your premises to show your teams just how intuitive label printing can be.”
