What Are Alphanumeric Price Guns?
A standard price gun prints numbers only price, date, or batch code in a fixed numeric format. An alphanumeric price gun prints both letters and numbers on the same label, allowing product codes, SKU references, size indicators, promotional text, or country of origin information to be included alongside a price or date. This makes them well suited to clothing retailers, garden centres, wholesalers, and any business that needs to display text-based information on a label rather than a price alone. Alphanumeric guns are also used in food production and butchery environments for traceability coding where a combination of letters and numbers is required on each label.
