When does it make sense to have your own printer?

Printing your own cable markers is particularly useful when you want more control over production and the ability to produce the right marking when it is needed. But it is not always the right choice. It depends on the project and how much can be planned in advance.

With Print-on-site, you do not need to order every marker in advance. You can produce planned marking yourself, while also handling changes and additional requirements as they arise. This reduces your dependence on new deliveries and helps keep work moving without unnecessary delays.

Print-on-site or custom marking service?

The best approach depends on the project.

Print-on-site is often a good choice when:

  • you want to keep control of production in-house

  • marking data may change

  • additional marking needs to be produced quickly

  • you need to produce different types of marking as required

Custom marking service is often a good choice when:

  • marking data is stable

  • volumes are high

  • much of the work can be planned in advance

  • you want the marking to be produced and sorted before installation

It does not have to be one or the other. Planned volumes can be ordered pre-printed and sorted, while Print-on-site gives you the flexibility to handle changes along the way.

A solution for producing your own marking

Print-on-site is about more than the printer itself. The solution combines printers, marker profiles and software, making it possible to create and produce marking where it is needed.


The Promark T-2000 is a portable option for printing on site. For a wider range of marking types, options include the MK10-EOS and MK10-SQUIX. Marking is created and managed in Promark Creator.

“In many projects, you know a lot in advance, but not everything. With Print-on-site, you can keep the flexibility to deal with changes along the way,” says Philip Andersson, Sales Manager at Partex Nordic.

What suits your way of working?

Start by looking at what you need to mark, the volumes involved, how often the information changes and where the marking needs to be produced.
