Low Costs
Printing labels for various types of products has grown significantly in recent times. Along with new and efficient printing machines, labels can be ordered even at very low costs without worrying about the exorbitant rate. Of course, large outlays are still cheaper, but this difference is not as big as a few years ago.
The potential market for low-cost prints is small, local companies producing small quantities of goods. Recently also a lot of home brewers begin to label their own beers, of course not for trade, but for example for contests. In addition, we have producers of honey, preserves and organic food, where the demand is rather small expenditure labels.
Wikipedia about laser printing
Laser printing is an electrostatic digital printing process. It produces high-quality text and graphics (and moderate-quality photographs) by repeatedly passing a laser beam back and forth over a negatively charged cylinder called a "drum" to define a differentially charged image.1 The drum then selectively collects electrically charged powdered ink (toner), and transfers the image to paper, which is then heated in order to permanently fuse the text, imagery, or both. As with digital photocopiers, laser printers employ a xerographic printing process. However, laser printing differs from analog photocopiers in that the image is produced by the direct scanning of the medium across the printer's photoreceptor. This enables laser printing to copy images more quickly than most photocopiers.

Generally print
Printing? multiple reflection of an image from a printing form onto a printing substrate (e.g., on paper). Every copy, that is a print, is commonly called a print.
The printing also means various techniques for copying text and graphics using traditional methods, using printing machines, as well as modern computer methods with the use of computer peripherals, such as printers, plotters, etc. - although such prints should be called printouts.
The introduction of computer techniques and digital printing to printers has meant that printing is also often understood as printing done on an industrial scale by means of adapted printing machines.
