What is the difference between barcode printer and receipt printer?

Label printers and barcode printers are two types of printing machines used in various businesses and settings. While they may seem similar at first glance, there are some differences that set them apart.

The key difference between a label printer and a barcode printer is the intent of usage.

Label printers are used to print labels, tags, and other small documents like receipts. Barcode printers, on the other hand, are used for printing barcodes and other identification tags.

As a label printer also prints barcodes, the term “Label Printers” and “Barcode Printers” are often used interchangeably in the market.

In this blog post, we’ll discuss more differences between label printers and barcode printers. We have differentiated the printers based on their usage, print technology, features, physical size, and more.
