Q. How long will the labels last?
A. Without prolonged exposure to light or heat, SmartLabels will last for years.
Q. Why do Seiko Instruments USA Inc. SmartLabels cost more than average labels?
A. The SLPs do not require any ink, ribbon or toner, but do require a special thermal label stock. Not having to purchase ink, ribbon or toner eliminates hidden costs and reduces your overall cost.
Q. I've used your labels and they fade quickly. What's the problem?
A. When exposed to prolonged light or ultra-violet radiation, the thermal label stock will cause the material to fade. With normal usage, this is not a problem. Also, when used on vinyl, thermal stock, like our labels, will fade due to gasses emitted by the vinyl.
