Details
LX4000 Color Label Printer with Big Ink™
The Primera LX4000 label printer is built for businesses that demand professional-grade color label output without the high operating costs of traditional inkjet systems. The Big Ink tank design separates the ink supply from the print head, which means you replace ink tanks independently rather than replacing entire cartridges. This approach significantly reduces your cost per label and cuts down on waste over time. We offer this printer because it delivers consistent quality across long print runs without requiring constant manual intervention.
LX4000 Color Label Printer with Big Ink
Volume:
The LX4000 is built to handle print volumes that range from short specialty runs to continuous high-output production. Its ink tank system holds significantly more ink than standard cartridge-based printers, which means fewer interruptions and more labels printed per session. For businesses that print thousands of labels per month, this printer keeps your operation running without frequent supply changes.
Print Speed:
In standard mode, the LX4000 reaches speeds up to 5 inches per second, giving you the throughput you need to meet tight production deadlines. Depending on how much detail your label design requires, you can also change the print speed setting. Higher-detail prints may run at a slightly reduced pace to maintain color accuracy, but the overall output rate remains competitive with other professional label printers in this category.
Print Width:
With a maximum print width of 4.25 inches, the LX4000 accommodates a wide variety of label dimensions. Your labels can be designed for small product tags, large canister wraps, or anything in between. This flexibility makes it one of the more versatile printers we carry for businesses that produce multiple product lines with different packaging requirements.
Cutter:
The LX4000 includes a built-in guillotine cutter that automatically trims labels cleanly after printing. This eliminates the need for manual cutting tools and speeds up your labeling workflow considerably. The cutter is rated for long-term durability and handles standard label stock reliably across extended print sessions.
Software:
Primera’s PrintHub software comes included with the LX4000 and gives you complete control over your print settings, ink level monitoring, and job queue management. The software is compatible with Windows and macOS and integrates with popular label design programs. You can track remaining ink levels in real time through PrintHub, so you are never caught off guard by a mid-job ink shortage.
Primera’s LX4000 Color Label Printer with Big Ink: Create Your Own Product Labels
One of the greatest advantages of bringing the Primera LX4000 color label printer into your business is the freedom it gives you to produce labels on demand, in-house, without relying on third-party print vendors. You control the quantity, timing, and design, which means faster product launches, easier label updates, and no minimum order requirements. Whether you are printing a short run of 50 labels or a long batch of several thousand, the LX4000 gives you consistent, professional results every time. Our customers across industries use this printer to bring their product packaging fully in-house and eliminate outsourcing delays.
Primera’s LX4000 Color Label Printer
The Primera LX4000 printer has built a strong reputation among small and mid-sized businesses for a reason. It combines high-resolution dye ink output with an economical Big Ink system that reduces your per-label printing costs dramatically compared to conventional cartridge printers. Many of our customers report that the LX4000 pays for itself quickly when they calculate the savings on outsourced label printing. Your team can start using the printer with little training because it is made to be simple to set up and run.
Watch the LX4000 Video
We recommend watching Primera’s official LX4000 product video to see the printer in action before you buy. The video walks you through the Big Ink system, the print quality output, and the overall setup process. Seeing the print quality on screen gives you a clear picture of what your labels will look like once you bring this printer into your workspace. Check the product page for the full video walkthrough.
Low Cost Per Print and Easy Set Up
The Primera lx4000 price reflects a strong value proposition when you factor in the long-term savings from the Big Ink system. We want you to understand the total cost of ownership, not just the sticker price, when evaluating this printer against competitors. The LX4000 is priced competitively and delivers savings over time through lower ink costs and a print head that lasts significantly longer than traditional cartridge-based alternatives.
Large, separate ink tanks are chipped to track levels in PrintHub.
Each ink tank in the LX4000 system is individually chipped so that PrintHub can accurately monitor remaining ink levels for each color. You will always know exactly how much ink is left in each tank before starting a print job. This prevents unexpected interruptions and lets you plan ink restocking in advance, keeping your production schedule on track without unnecessary guesswork.
Separate CMY Tanked Ink is fed through tubing to the LX4000 print head.
The cyan, magenta, and yellow ink tanks are completely separate units connected to the print head through a tubing system. This means you only replace the color that runs out rather than discarding a combined cartridge with partially used ink. The result is less waste, lower per-label costs, and a more environmentally friendly printing setup overall. Our customers appreciate this practical design when they see how much ink they save over months of regular use.
Compare Printers
When you compare the LX4000 against other label printers in its category, a few key differences stand out. The Big Ink tank system gives it a lower cost per label than cartridge-based competitors. The 4800 dpi maximum resolution puts it ahead of many printers in the same price range. The built-in cutter adds convenience that some entry-level printers lack. We provide comparison tools on our site so you can evaluate the LX4000 side by side with other Primera models and make the best choice for your specific printing volume and label type requirements. The Primera lx4000 color label printer dye reviews from our customers consistently highlight the superior color output and long-term reliability as the top reasons they chose this model.
