    Toshiba America Business Solutions' new printing innovation significantly simplifies everyday packaging applications for shipping and logistics operations while conserving resources in the process.  Beyond streamlining everyday tasks for warehouse professionals, Toshiba's Duplex Linerless Thermal Printer (DL1024) reduces costs and boosts productivity while helping organizations meet the demand for more sustainable printing solutions.   

    One-of-a-Kind Industrial Printer Boosts Production & Sustainability

    Toshiba's Duplex Linerless Thermal Printer simultaneously prints on both sides of a label without using a liner or backing material.  Such ingenuity eliminates the plastic pouch and additional packing slip without producing any label liner waste enabling organizations to function more sustainably.  Professionals may further utilize the second side of the label for promotional purposes, easy return labels and packing slips.

    Utilizing the Premier Print & Services Group's Linerless DuplexPackSlip® label, Toshiba's Duplex Thermal Printer reduces up to 40 percent of labeling costs.  Toshiba's latest system meets this objective by reducing the consumables for an extra label as well as the materials necessary for attaching a packing list to a parcel.  Toshiba's new printer also dramatically minimizes the labor time for applying package labels.

    Rapidly delivering up to 24 labels per minute while featuring a considerable 3,000-label roll capacity, the Duplex Thermal Printer further enhances efficiency by reducing downtime with fewer label roll changes.  Crisp and clear labeling is also a snap considering the system's near-edge printhead design and 203 dots-per-inch resolution. 

    Moreover, a vibrant and intuitive 10.1-inch LCD touchscreen control panel creates an even better user experience for logistics personnel.  Touting ruggedized components throughout its stout design, Toshiba's Duplex Thermal Printer withstands the harsh conditions many warehouses and distribution centers present. 

    The printer is also available in a print-and-apply configuration from Panther, a ProMach product brand. This system deploys the company’s all-electric, servo-driven tamp applicator creating a fully automatic solution for more proficient operations.  The printer also ecologically streamlines the distribution and fulfillment process while increasing efficiency by automatically applying a shipping label and a packing list in a single application.

    Toshiba's latest eco-centric printing innovation is additionally gaining popularity within editorial outlets worldwide.  From the United States to Italy and Greece to Japan.  Upon publicly launching on March 15, 2023, Toshiba's Duplex Linerless Thermal Printer has appeared in 146 stories featuring an overall readership of 232,208,456.  This coverage is an advertising equivalent to $436,551.90
