The environment is normal indoor retail, so yes dry and non humid. The labels are plain paper attached to paper bags.

I am proposing a toner based, plain paper copier. The labels will not be high volume. BOPP film would not be a supported media in this copier.

There is some concern that the label adhesive might build up on the paper feed rollers over time but the rollers are easy to replace and inexpensive.

This customer is an Apple iOS business using 10.14 Catalina. The Toshiba copier I am proposing, there is a print driver for Catalina.

The customer is a five hour drive away with a local hardware service provider. I plan to interact with the customer via TeamViewer.

The label printing industry does not seem to be especially supportive of iOS.

I did find a very low cost iOS label design software called Swift Publisher. I downloaded a free trial and it seems to do everything required.

Its funny, same looking machines with different names slapped on them. I hate those midsize continuous presses, always had issues aligning them at the start of printjobs.

Does anyone have any experience printing GS1 labels? Specifically, DataBar Extended Stacked?

I am using BarTender software. There is a wizard.

I bought a new Datalogic handheld scanner to scan for the accuracy of the labels that I print.

I might need a Verifier or a service to verify.

The customer is a licensed cannabis producer. The product goes to distribution center and then retail stores where it is scanned at the point of sale. Therefore, the labels must be perfect and scan well.

A big, long machine automatically puts the product into tin cans, seals it, puts on a first preprinted label on a roll and then puts on a second label on a roll.
