Why “Cheap” Shipping Labels Cost You Customers & Revenue

🔹 Barcode smudging & misreads — Carriers charge $4.50 per mis-sort, and 1% failure on 10,000 shipments wastes $450.

🔹 Adhesive failure in heat/cold — Labels peeling off during last-mile delivery causes lost packages and angry buyers.

🔹 Printhead damage — Aggressive label coatings wear out Zebra / Brother printers 2x faster, costing $700+ in repairs.

🔹 Rigid supply chains — Minimum 50-box MOQs and 6-week lead times force you to tie up capital in inventory.

🔹 Hidden shipping costs — Lightweight, poorly wound rolls mean more changeovers and higher freight per label.

👉 You deserve labels that perform from the first scan to the final mile — without burning through your budget.

Frequently Asked Questions About Thermal Printer Shipping Labels

1. What’s the difference between direct thermal and thermal transfer labels?

Direct thermal prints without ribbon — the heat activates a coating in the paper. Ideal for short‑life shipping labels. Thermal transfer uses a ribbon and is better for long‑term archival. KingColor offers both; our direct thermal topcoat is optimized for legibility up to 24 months.

2. Will these work with my Rollo, Zebra, or Brother printer?

Yes. Our thermal printer shipping labels are tested on Rollo, Zebra GK420/ZD500, Brother QL, Honeywell, and TSC series. We also support fan‑fold for automated line printers.

3. What’s the minimum order quantity?

We welcome custom and standard orders starting from just 1 roll for samples. For bulk pricing, MOQ is typically 10 cartons — far lower than industry standard.

4. Do you offer free samples before bulk ordering?

Absolutely. We provide free samples (up to 50 labels) shipped via DHL/UPS. You pay only shipping if outside China. Test on your equipment and compare with your current label.

5. What are your payment terms for international buyers?

Standard terms: T/T (30% deposit, 70% before shipment) or L/C at sight. For established clients, we can discuss net‑30 or open account. We also accept PayPal for sample orders.

6. What lead time can I expect?

Sample orders ship within 2 business days. Bulk production takes 10–15 days depending on quantity and customization. Expedited shipping available.

7. How can I be sure of quality consistency?

Our ISO 9001 facility conducts in‑line coating weight, adhesion, and print contrast tests. Each batch receives a COA (Certificate of Analysis) before shipment. We also offer third‑party testing if required.
