Rena L-326 Tabber / Labeler
The Rena L-326 was a fast tabber, labeler and stamp applier running up to 22,500 pieces per hour — but critical parts have been unavailable since 2005, so it is no longer recommended.
Description
About the Rena L-326
Back in the day, the Rena L-326 was a fast and unique multipurpose machine — a tabber, labeler and stamp applier rolled into one. It was among the fastest in its class, labeling and tabbing at up to 22,500 pieces per hour, accepting material up to 5/16″ thick, and applying Rena-brand transparent labels and tabs for a clean, professional look.
The trouble is age: as of 2005, most of the critical parts — sensors, clutch, brake and o-ring — are no longer available. About the only parts still obtainable are an aftermarket feed roller and separators. Because of that, All For Mailers will not buy back the L-326 or its older sibling the L-325, and we do not recommend purchasing a used one unless you already own one and need it for parts.

Still Supported by All For Mailers
The Rena L-326 is discontinued and largely unsupportable due to parts scarcity. If you are looking to replace an L-326 or L-325, consider machines still in production: the Accufast XL Labeler paired with an Accufast KT or KT2, or the Rena L-350. Contact us and we will point you to the right current replacement.
Protect what you have. These machines were built to last, and the mechanics will outlive the electronics every time. If you’re running one, put it on a quality surge protector, and add static protection — especially in dry winter air or on high-speed paper handling. Power spikes and static are what kill boards, and on these machines a board may not be replaceable at any price. It’s the cheapest insurance there is for equipment you can’t simply reorder.

About the L-32x family: the L-326 is Rena’s own design — unlike many machines in this industry, it was never rebadged under other brands. It sits at the top of Rena’s labeler ladder: the compact L-324 (with the T-324 as its tabber version) is the smallest and slowest, the L-325 — also sold as the TL-100 — steps up in size and speed, and the L-326 is the biggest and fastest of the family. If you run any of these, parts and service experience carry across the family — call 866-430-2874.
A word about the label era: the L-324, L-325 (TL-100), and L-326 were incredible machines that did a great job — genuinely some of the best-built desktop labelers ever made. But we’ll be straight with you: we no longer purchase them, because there’s very little call for desktop labeling anymore. Modern mailings print the address directly on the piece with digital inkjet — no label to print, peel, or apply. If you’re still running one and it’s working, run it proudly. When you’re ready for what replaced it, see our address printers — that’s the end of the label era, and the machines that ended it.
