Primera LX4000 Pigment Inkjet Color Label Printer: Enhanced Durability and GHS Compliance
The Primera LX4000 Pigment Inkjet Color Label Printer delivers exceptional durability for labels requiring water, chemical, and UV resistance. Built on Primera’s proven LX-Series technology, this version of the LX4000 ships with large, individual pigment ink tanks and a reusable pigment print head — perfect for high-volume printing of GHS BS5609-compliant chemical labels or outdoor product labels. The ClearView ink tank system allows you to see exactly how much ink remains, ensuring seamless operation and minimal downtime. Whether you need high-quality graphics, crisp barcodes, or vibrant text, the LX4000 Pigment model offers unparalleled flexibility with industry-leading print resolution and durability.
Why Choose the LX4000 Pigment Printer?
Unlike the dye-based LX4000 model, this pigment version ships with pigment ink tanks specifically formulated for harsh conditions and stringent labeling requirements. Pigment inks are far more resistant to fading, smudging, and running than dye inks, making them an excellent choice for labels subject to moisture, chemicals, or direct sunlight. Plus, with its reusable print head and individual CMY tanks, you can replace colors as needed and maintain a low cost per label.

Comparing Pigment and Dye Inks
While dye inks create vibrant, glossy labels ideal for retail products, pigment inks excel in tough environments where labels may be exposed to water, chemicals, or direct sunlight. Since the LX4000 is available in both dye and pigment configurations, you can switch between ink types by using the corresponding print head and ink tanks, ensuring you have the perfect solution for every labeling application.
What Type of Labels Can the LX4000 Pigment Print?
Like other Primera LX-Series printers, the LX4000 works with 3-inch core label rolls up to 6 inches in diameter. With pigment inks, you’ll achieve excellent durability on matte or synthetic materials — including GHS-certified polypropylene labels — suitable for outdoor, industrial, and chemical uses. Though pigment inks are not typically used on high-gloss papers, they deliver outstanding performance on matte finishes and specialty substrates requiring robust, long-lasting prints.
How Does the LX4000 Differ from the LX3000?
The main distinction between the Primera LX3000 and the Primera LX4000 is the ClearView ink tank design. On the LX3000, the ink tanks are opaque, while on the LX4000 they are transparent. This clear design allows you to easily see ink levels and plan your printing runs without interrupting production.
Comparing the LX910 and LX4000
Primera’s LX910 color label printer features a single tri-color ink cartridge holding cyan, magenta, and yellow. By contrast, the LX4000 uses three separate tanks — one each for cyan, magenta, and yellow — helping you optimize ink usage and reduce waste. When one color runs out, you only replace that specific tank.
