Label Printer - to print a colored strip on a label

1020 Views

I am looking for a printer, which could print labels with color coding.

Let me explain, what I am trying to acheive..

1. I should be able to print labels, - labels of size 4 X 6 IN, or 3 X 2 IN or any sizes of label -- > the label is not colored, just like any normal label, with white background, and data being printed in black color..(this is what all intermec and zebra printers do.. )

2. Label has barcodes --> linear bar codes as well as 2D Matrix barcodes... : This could be acheived by any of the Intermec printers (PM4i or 3400E ) or Zebra Printers.

3. The label should contain a colored strip based on the content of the packing box . for eg, if it is rubber part, the label should contain a Red color strip, if plastic then yellow color, if assembly then blue and so on... A colored bar of rectangular shape, (1 cm width and 3 cm long ).

Does anyone know any Printers out in the market, which could do this 3 rd step ? (obviously along with first step and second step ).

I called Intermec and Zebra - they both dont have it...

Also, Please keep in mind that, these printer should be capable of printing these labels from SAP ---> ie, we will be calling a standard text (SO10), using the write_form, and these printer should be able to print it...

Any input, even a clue, will be of much help for me.

Thank you
