Frequently Asked Questions About Royal Label’s Expert Label Printing Services
Digital label printing offers several benefits:
Speed: Eliminates the need for plates, allowing rapid production. Ask about our One-Day Turnaround service!
Cost-Effectiveness: Because digital labels do not require plates to be created, there is no film output, and minimal machine setup, Royal Label is able to offer fixed costs for digitally printed labels. These costs are also much lower than those of other forms of label printing, such as flexographic and silkscreen labels.
High-Quality: Digital labels allow for color consistency, image registration, and color vibrancy across all labels printed. This combination is perfect for when you need your product label text to be crisp and your colors to pop. Our HP Indigo 6900 digital press can print custom digital labels fast and with zero defects.
Flexibility: With digital labels customization is easy! Royal Label can print 1,000 custom labels and every label can contain different information like multiple SKUs, consecutive numbers, multiple barcodes, or just several versions of the same label. Don’t just take our word for it though! You can see what our digital press for labels can do for you by requesting some custom label samples.

The requirements for a product label vary between states, industries, and products. Before creating a label, you should check the regulations for your business, location, and product.
