Toshiba Expands Industrial Label-Printer Portfolio

Toshiba America Business Solutions today introduced its latest industrial label printer, which is designed for use in warehouses and distribution centers, and for horticulture and manufacturing sectors. 

Toshiba says its new thermal-transfer  BX820T ($4,999 MSRP) provides industrial professionals with the day-to-day reliability and consistency they require, along with a low total cost of ownership.

The model provides up to 8” media capability for standard and specialty labeling while supporting vellum, matted, and glossy paper as well as synthetic and polyester film. The metal-reinforced printer is said to produce clear and durable labels for oversize pallets, cartons, and drums, as well as product identification and regulatory compliance labeling (such as for the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, Environmental Protection Agency, and other local and regional regulatory agencies).

High-Tech Labeling

The new label printer features a dual-core processor, powering both real-time and Linux operating systems, propelling the company’s A-BRID ecosystem. Toshiba’s A-BRID platform integrates copier/MFP printer technology with high-tech hardware, enabling fast print speeds of up to 6 inches per second, and advanced IT applications.

Integration and Management

Other features include:

• Cloud connectivity and remote management, with the printer integrating with Toshiba’s Elevate Sky MFPConnect and SOTI Connect, enabling 24/7 IoT fleet monitoring, automatic firmware updates, counters, and log creation.
• Auto-emulation detecting ZPL II, IPL, SBPL, DPL, and TPCL, which enables replacement of outdated printers while simplifying setup.

Supports Global Sunrise 2027 Labeling Standard

Toshiba’s BX820T printer also aligns with Sunrise 2027, the GS1 US-led (the worldwide standards organization for barcode labeling) initiative that is transitioning the retail supply chain from one-dimensional (1D) to two-dimensional (2D) barcodes. Optimized for 2D barcodes, the new BX820T enables organizations to feature far more sales and marketing information on their product labels while also allowing for faster scanning.

“Toshiba’s new barcode printer provides warehouse, distribution center, horticulture and manufacturing professionals with a versatile product for producing larger labels and thicker tags on a diverse array of media,” commented Toshiba America Business Solutions Vice President of Marketing and Strategic Business Development Bill Melo. “By easily integrating within existing fleets as well as supporting the upcoming GS1 US initiative, our printer presents industrial professionals with an ideal solution today and in the future.”

The BX820T industrial label printer is now available from the company’s authorized resellers. For more information and complete specifications, visit Toshiba here.
