RIBBON WRITER

Getting into Ribbons

It may seem like a niche market, but you might be surprised how popular printing onto and personalising Ribbons has become in recent years. It neatly follows on the trend of personalisation that is showing no signs of winding down soon.

Whilst some people will build a whole business around printing just ribbons, most people want to use this as an add on to a main business to give themselves greater scope and versatility to look after their customers’ needs and wishes.

Ribbon Printing has never been easier or more accessible than it is now. These small adaptable machines are approx the size of a shoe box and can be easily accommodated on any work desk or surface. They connect directly with your computer and run digitally making them fast and flexible. The way to look at a ribbon printer is as an additional way to bring in revenue and meet your customers need by providing a unique solution. They probably would not have thought that the option is even available at such a cost effective price, and this can often win a ‘sale’ because you can provide such a unique service. Also Ribbon Printers are not just ‘one trick ponies’ as you can use your Ribbon Printer for a variety of other printed items such as Window and Car Stickers, Personalised Name Tags that can either be ironed on or sewn into clothing, also they are great solutions for short run Lanyard production, all out of one small machine.

Ribbon Writer are market leaders in this field of personalisation, having traded for over 15 years and developed their highly successful Diamond Design Software, making designing onto Ribbon ‘child’s play’. David Chill, Owner added “During the Pandemic we had the opportunity to update our software for all the new windows platforms and put together a serious investment to our Version 5 package to make it even easier for customers to use, if you are 8 or 80 this simple software takes just minutes to understand and you will printing like a professional. We have also maintained that we will provide this free of charge to all existing and new customers who are happy to continue using our purchased hardware, this is quite an undertaking in the current economic climate but show to are consistently committed to giving excellent customer care standards, along with our free helpline to sort out any technical issues that people may arise, during the life of their printer”. Also in 2022 we are delighted to have added yet another printer option to our range. After talking to many of our long standing customers they asked if we could provide a larger commercial machine to cope with even bigger print runs. So now we stock our newest addition to the family the Enterprise Elite Model. Still a table top printer with a great small footprint, but this machine will cope with larger runs of ribbons using larger spools of ribbon, so less change over time, as well as printing greater speed and a better cost per metre, it can work as a standalone machine. This type of machine has all ready been put to good use in warehouse operations where speed and efficiency is paramount.
