Business users have for many years purchased desktop thermal label printers and print engines to print labels with barcodes, yet almost every printer supplied is effectively designed to fail barcode applications.
Fact: None of these printers can confirm a readable barcode has been printed, therefore they are equally unable to alert you when an unreadable barcode has been printed. The consequences of unreadable barcodes are significant to all size businesses using manufacturing, warehousing, logistics and point of sale/use applications.
There are multiple reasons why your existing printer will not print readable barcodes 100% of the time, such as print head failure, ribbon wrinkle, incorrect settings, media mismatch, printer wear and tear and others.
Take a close look at the printers below before you select your next thermal label printer, or if you have already experienced problems resulting from unreadable barcodes and need to replace your legacy printer.
Call us on 0161 818 6446 to arrange a free printer audit and we will help you understand how to overcome any risks or issues with your legacy printers.
