KROY ANNOUNCES 70% PRICE REDUCTION ON PORTABLE K2500 LABEL AND WIRE-MARKING PRINTER


CLEVELAND (February 21, 2000) - Kroy LLC, a leading manufacturer of label and wire-marking printers, has announced a major price reduction on the Kroy K2500 - a hand-held printer that produces labels, bar codes and wire marks. Formerly retailing for $1095, the K2500 now has a suggested retail price of only $299.

 "Because we now sell directly to the consumer, we've been able to lower our prices and pass the savings on to the user," said Benny Bonanno, vice-president of sales and marketing for Kroy. 

Along with the new lower price, Kroy has also added two new supplies for the K2500: 1) wire wraps, a self-laminating label used to professionally mark terminated wires and cables and 2) cast vinyl, a supply which sticks to curved or irregular surfaces and has up to a seven-year exterior life. These new supplies make the K2500 even more versatile by supplementing the already-existing supplies: direct-thermal, die-cut, tamper-evident, laminated and non-laminated industrial labels and heat-shrink tubing. 

"Because the K2500 prints on such a wide variety of supplies, users can enjoy labeling solutions that fill their needs and fit into their budgets," said Bonanno. "Our K2500 is easily carried from one site to another to create on-site, on-demand labeling and bar-code identification of equipment, parts, wires and cables - just about anything!"

Kroy provides timely identification solutions to customers, including bar-code printers, labeling systems and supplies, and signage. Headquartered in Cleveland, Kroy maintains sales operations in the United States, Germany, France and the United Kingdom.
