Pricing guns are manually operated, mechanical tools that print and dispense labels. Pricing guns can be used to label goods with a wide range of information, quickly and easily.

Pricing guns are available in a wide range of standard variants.

A basic distinction is drawn between pricing guns according to their area of application. The area of application in turn determines the final label size and the number of lines and digits printed by the pricing gun.

Our Product Finder enables you to find the best Meto pricing gun for your application. Use filters to select your application area and you will be offered a selection of the most suitable pricing guns.

Any pricing gun should be durable and robust. Another requirement is that a pricing gun must be both easy for the user to use and ergonomic in its application. Besides the quality of its workmanship, a pricing gun should be ideally suited to the intended area of application. An ideal, certified combination of the pricing gun itself, suitable labels and a high-quality ink roll yield a perfect print image.

Depressing the trigger causes the print ribbon/stamp to be guided over a roller-shaped stamp pad and moistened with black ink. In the same step, the stamp is pressed onto a label, producing the impression/print image. Owing to the carefully engineered lever action in the tool, very little force is required to operate the pricing gun.

When the trigger is released, the printed label is ejected from the front of the gun on a dispensing lip. The label roll inside the tool is automatically indexed, placing the next label in exactly the right position for the next print operation.

Individual print points can be set to the desired value by means of an adjusting knob on the printhead: simply move the slider to the position to be changed, then turn the wheel until the desired value appears in the viewing window of the printhead. Each individual digit can be adjusted in this way. Blank values can also be selected for positions on the label that are to remain unprinted. Finally, move the slider back to its initial position. The print ribbon/stamp is now set to the desired print image.

On average, a single ink roll can print up to 30,000 labels.

Thanks to Meto’s coordinated overall concept comprising the pricing gun print ribbon, ink and labels, the labels dry within 5 seconds of being dispensed.

Standard Meto labels are optimized for indoor use, but can also be used outdoors. We offer special label/ink roll combinations for permanent applications in outdoor areas exposed to intense sunlight (such as garden centers). Please contact us here.

The label backing tape is coated with a thin silicone film. Once the label has been peeled off, the silicone remains on the backing tape. In Germany and Austria, the coated backing material must be disposed of in the residual waste bin and NOT in the waste paper recycling bin.

We are currently working on alternatives which do not require the use of silicone.

Used ink rolls contain no harmful substances and may therefore be disposed of together with normal residual waste

Genuine Meto ink rolls contain no harmful substances, and therefore present no danger should they come into contact with the skin.

Should you get ink on your skin, the best way to remove it is with household dish-washing agent or alcohol-based cleaning agents.
