Better Pack® 555e Repair
Contact the Experts
Marktec has been repairing customer equipment for 40+ years.
We go beyond the basic repair. We rebuild equipment with original OEM parts to new equipment specifications. We disassemble equipment down to the lowest level possible, remove any debris, clean everything, replace worn/defective parts, make needed adjustments, reassemble, set it to factory specifications, and then test it. We take the time to do it right, the first time.
Attached is a picture of a Better Packages model 555eS gummed taper showing it disassembled. We perform our most of our repairs at a flat labor rate amount, so you know upfront what the labor cost will be. Parts needed are extra because those needs cannot be predicted in advance. We quote the final cost to you prior to the repair for your approval. We warranty our work – always.
We repair Better Packages and Marsh Shipping Supply gummed tapers, thermal transfer label printers, ink jet printers, and other ink jet and packaging equipment, using the same rebuild process and philosophy of thoroughness.
