Why Every Entrepreneur Needs a Handheld Inkjet Printer - Print Peak

In the fast-paced world of entrepreneurship, efficiency and flexibility are key. Here at PrintPeak we wonder what a young Bill Gates (and Steve Jobs) would’ve made of our portable printers!

Whether you're managing a startup from your garage, running a home-based business from your kitchen, or overseeing a growing brand from a swanky new office space, having tools that can adapt to your needs is essential.

A handheld inkjet printer is one of those must-have devices that can make a significant impact on your day-to-day operations. Here’s why every entrepreneur should consider adding a PrintPeak handheld printer to their business arsenal.

  1. Cost-Effective Branding Solutions

As an entrepreneur, you’re always looking for ways to cut costs without compromising quality. One of the most expensive aspects of launching or growing a business is branding, especially if you’re frequently outsourcing label printing or product customization. A handheld inkjet printer offers a cost-effective solution, allowing you to print custom labels, logos, and packaging designs in-house. This enables you to maintain brand consistency without the added expense of professional printing services.

But don’t just take our word for it. Here’s what one of our satisfied customers had to say!...

"The portable printer lets me brand products effortlessly, saving time and money." — Alex, Small Business Owner

  1. On-the-Go Printing for Trade Shows and Events

Entrepreneurs often attend trade shows, pop-up events, and networking functions where the ability to print on the spot is invaluable. Whether you need name tags, product labels, or promotional materials, a handheld printer like the PrintPeak Handheld Super Hero is your ideal companion. With its lightweight and portable design, you can easily carry it in your bag and print instantly on-site, ensuring you're always prepared for the unexpected.

Eloise came to us looking for a professional looking solution for her events company when she had to deal with last-minute RSVPs and was already on-site at her event. We’re happy to say that we hooked her up with one of our Hero Handheld printers and she’s been rocking a more professional vibe at her events ever since…

"I can print branded swag bags and promotional items on the spot during events—such a game-changer!" — Eloise, Event Organizer

  1. Flexible Printing on Any Surface

Entrepreneurs in various industries require tools that can adapt to different materials and surfaces. PrintPeak’s Mini PrintPeak Handheld Inkjet Printer is super versatile, capable of printing on a wide range of surfaces, including wood, metal, fabric, plastic, and even curved items like jars and bottles. 

So, whether you're in the food and beverage industry, e-commerce, or manufacturing, the ability to print on-demand labels and designs directly on your products can streamline your operations and enhance your product presentation. We had a kombucha brewer from Portland, Oregon reach out to us looking for a quick fix to solve him writing his expiry dates by hand on the bottles of his beer – as well as naming his scobi jars. Shout out to James for the kind words…

"This printer is perfect for labeling my home-brew bottles and jars with custom designs." — James, Brewery Owner

  1. Time-Saving Inventory Management

For businesses dealing with inventory, managing stock can be a headache. PrintPeak’s thermal label printer  helps you label inventory items quickly, print barcodes efficiently, and create tags on the fly. This ensures that your inventory remains organized and accessible, allowing for smoother operations and minimizing downtime. Whether you're managing a small stockroom or a larger warehouse, quickly labeling stock with barcodes or tags keeps your products well-organized and easy to track.

A few months ago a dropshipper e-mailed us asking if our thermal label printer could help him with the stock that he ended up keeping in-house and on-hand. Here’s what he had to say…

"Prints labels for my inventory in no time. Big fan!" — Arjun, E-commerce Store Owner

  1. Perfect for Startups with Limited Resources

If you’re just starting your entrepreneurial journey, chances are you’re working with limited resources. A handheld inkjet printer is a budget-friendly tool that can serve multiple functions, from marketing to inventory management. By investing in this one device, you can avoid the ongoing costs of outsourcing and create a professional, polished look for your products, packaging, and marketing materials. It’s a one-time investment that offers long-term benefits for your business.

Maria was on a tight budget when she contacted us looking for a professional solution that wouldn’t reveal how cash-strapped she was behind-the-scenes. What can we say? We were happy to hear back from her…

"I use this printer for everything from labeling my products to customizing packaging—it’s a lifesaver!" — Maria, Startup Founder

  1. Customizing Client Orders in Real Time

Personalization is a big selling point for many businesses today. Offering clients or customers custom options can set you apart from competitors, and a handheld printer makes this process much easier. Print custom messages, packaging details, or client names directly onto products before shipping, creating a memorable customer experience. Whether you're running a small e-commerce shop or providing bespoke services, customizing your clients' orders in real time can add that extra touch of professionalism.

PrintPeak’s awesome ‘CLICK SLIDE PRINT’ functionality means that all you have to do is punch in the words of your choosing, select the font you’d like, and then CLICK the red trigger, SLIDE across your chosen surface, and… voila!... PRINT!

"I love being able to personalize products with a client's name right before delivery!" — Priya, Creative Entrepreneur

  1. Enhancing Product Packaging

For entrepreneurs in industries like cosmetics, crafts, or gourmet food, how your product looks matters just as much as the product itself. Using a handheld printer allows you to add high-quality, professional-looking branding to your product packaging. Whether it’s printing your logo, product details, or ingredient lists, high-resolution printing makes your product look polished and ready for market.

Consumers are simply far more likely to trust a product that has a professional aesthetic. Elena makes artisanal soap in South Africa and she was looking for an adjustable printing solution that didn’t require minimum print runs…

"Great for branding my handmade soaps! Quick, reliable, and sharp prints." — Elena, Artisan Soap Maker

  1. Streamlining Daily Operations

A handheld inkjet printer offers more than just creative freedom—it can also streamline your business operations. From labeling office supplies to organizing paperwork, the PrintPeak Handheld Hero is perfect for everyday tasks. Entrepreneurs need to stay organized, and the ability to quickly print labels for everything from file folders to storage boxes can make a big difference in how efficiently your office runs.

Nadia chose our Handheld Hero model which comes in a half inch print height. It shares the same cartridge as our  Mini PrintPeak Handheld Inkjet Printer, so she ended up getting both models for her business. She confessed to being a little OCD in terms of how she likes to have everything labeled and, once again, we were happy to help…

"I use it everywhere, from the office to the kitchen. It helps me keep everything organized!" — Nadia, Small Business Owner

  1. Real-Time Marketing Flexibility

In a fast-moving business environment, having the ability to react quickly to changes is essential. Whether it’s a last-minute sale, a pop-up event, or a new promotion, handheld printers allow you to print marketing materials on the spot, including banners, price tags, and promotional flyers. This flexibility can be the difference between making the most of an opportunity or missing out.

Raj was a referral from Eloise and we’re happy to be pimping up the party game, one event at a time! PrintPeak printers make networking events a breeze…
