Ricoh has extended its
Managed Print Services contract with a well-known transport and logistics company to include label printers. The company uses label printers to print barcode and RFID shipping labels. The labels, and the devices on which they are printed, are critical to the company’s day-to-day logistical operations.
The logistics company ships thousands of items every day for its clients, expertly managing the movement of products as diverse as automotive components, white goods, perishable foods and pharmaceutical supplies. Every item is tracked and can be accounted for throughout the logistics process.
Unique barcode and RFID labels, printed and attached to goods in the company’s regional distribution centres, are used to identify and track the progress of individual packages and palleted goods throughout the logistical process. The labels ensure the correct handling and timely movement of goods across borders.
"The Zebra label printers are proving to be reliable, productive and easy to use. And, with Ricoh responding quickly to day-to-day issues, the logistics company has seen a significant reduction in the number of print-related labelling failures."
