Smart Printing allows users to print labels without using a PC attached. These printers can run computer programs directly without a host computer to give them label-printing commands.
Because smart printers integrate the power of a personal computer, you can change the way you structure your printing operations. Since smart printers are programmable and can work without a computer or network connection, you can integrate your printing tasks into your operations to streamline and improve processes. Print shipping labels, tags, shelf labels, etc., on demand in a variety of work environments.
- Simplify IT Needs – reduces IT hardware, networking, and support needs and expenses.
Smart printers eliminate the PCs, cabling, and network cards needed to direct your printing jobs from a computer. You can also eliminate print server layers of your printing architecture and the associated software licensing and support costs by taking advantage of smart printers’ ability to interface directly with enterprise applications.The on-board intelligence and two-way communication on smart printers enable support staff to manage printers proactively and reduce downtime. Having LCDs and control panels helps operators address issues without IT staff support, thus reducing the time the printer is out of service.
- Low Cost to Implement. Smart printing systems typically cost less to implement than conventional, computer-dependent architectures and provides scalability to let you change printing processes without replacing printers.
- Better Label Printing Management. Typically Smart Printing applications run at the point of application, not in a back room – and labels are not printed until they are needed. Labels are printed on-demand as needed which saves money through eliminating wasted labels.
