The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is acquiring a large format printer to support its printing needs for specialized radioactive labels. These labels must be printed on high-performance vinyl materials that can withstand a wide range of storage temperatures, including extremely cold conditions. The new printer must match the performance and configuration of NIST’s current equipment, using specific software and color settings to maintain precise color quality and durability. The purpose of this acquisition is to ensure consistent, high-quality label production for safety and regulatory compliance. The contractor will provide a printer that meets specific printing and cutting standards, along with comprehensive support services. This includes installation, user training, preventive maintenance, and prompt on-site repair services. The contract also includes a warranty with unlimited service calls and an option for extended maintenance, ensuring the equipment remains fully operational and up to required specifications. -Q&A document added 7/29.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is conducting market research to identify qualified vendors capable of providing a large-format printer suitable for printing specialized radioactive safety and specimen labeling materials. The system must be compatible with VersaWorks software and support high-precision color management, using specific vinyl media that withstands a range of storage conditions, including cryogenic temperatures (-273°C). Support requirements include installation and user training at NIST, one-year warranty, and preventative maintenance twice per year. Please see the attached documents for further details.
