After printing black-only, thermal transfer labels for their
products for years, Rossmoor decided to add on-demand color labels. According to Michael Glover of Rossmoor, “we
wanted to add images to our labels to improve the look of our products. Further, we had opportunities to co-pack
products for other companies. These
companies wanted their products produced with nice looking labels.”
Based on their requirements, Rossmoor Pastries contacted BCS Solutions (http://www.bcssolutions.com/). BCS
Solutions is a 20-year old reseller and systems integrator specializing in
Wireless & Mobility Systems and, now, advanced RFID systems.
Headquartered in Garden Grove,
California, BCS has sales
and systems offices throughout the U.S. The strength of BCS Solutions comes from
working closely with their customers to determine their specific
requirements. Then they present the best options to deliver the optimal solution
to meet their customer’s requirements.
After understanding the requirements, Fred
Braun, Sales with BCS recommended the TM-C3400.
According to Fred, “I had worked with Guy on solutions for a few other
companies including FX Luminaire (http://pos.epson.com/colorworks/assets/ColorWorks_FX_Luminaire_SS.pdf) and knew the TM-C3400 would meet the
requirements of Rossmoor.”
After speaking with Fred, I arranged to provide Rossmoor with a demo
printer and training in their office.
Within a few minutes, we had Michael printing using the TM-C3400 and
their label software, Labelview from Teklynx (http://www.teklynx.com/en/products/label-design-solutions/labelview). With Labelview, be sure to set up in the Epson driver the label format/size first; and then select
this size/design in the Labelview application when designing a label.
According to Michael, “ we are now printing
4” x 2” and 4” x 3.5” die cut labels we purchase from Fred at BCS. Based on the production schedule, we print
from a few hundred to up to 5,000 labels at a time.”
“In addition, we now co-pack for a few
companies like Cruz Sports Nutrition.
With our ability to produce labels using our customer’s brands, we plan
to begin producing for other similar companies.
For a small baker, color labels on-demand is much better than printing
black only labels or using preprinted labels”, says Michael.

posts covering bakeries:
For bakeries, on-demand color labels
are a great idea. If you are a baker or if your
customers are bakers, talk to them about using on-demand color labels. It’s a “sweet and tasty” idea!
