Because the colours for direct thermal & thermal transfer printed labels are limited (In most cases to just black), we have on many occasions supplied labels which are already printed with a design in anything from a single colour to elaborate full colour with spaces to print information into. Examples of these are food labels where the weight and price is added to pre-printed boxes or address labels with a company logo and some additional text. Sometimes a label has been entirely printed but with the exception of a title or a number, which is added afterwards when required so the label isn’t narrowed down to one particular item or product.
