With the ability to centralize your enterprise labeling system, print up to millions of labels a day with amazing throughput, and deliver critical print status information in real time, the Loftware Print Server (LPS) over-delivers!
Ge�ng the right label to the right printer, at the right �me, is paramount in a global economy where business agility to meet market demands and regula�ons gives you the compe��ve edge. Labels and documents are key components to your supply chain’s performance. If threaded correctly throughout the organiza�on, your enterprise labeling solu�on can become your greatest asset. An Enterprise Lifecycle Prin�ng solu�on (ELP) must easily scale and handle high volumes of label throughput accurately, and without fail. Inefficiencies in the system affect delivery schedules; hur�ng your business with imposed fines and penal�es from your distributors, clients and countries. Proper labeling is expected, but when failure in compliance, using the wrong label template, or a printer problem places your business at risk, the power of the right print server is of utmost importance.
