Toshiba’s B-EX series of label printers are recognized as the reliable series in the market. Toshiba’s newest flagship model in its B-EX series couples the performance and speed necessary to handle even the most rugged industrial applications.

B-EX6 model is capable of printing on various types of 6-inch labels, which is essential for the manufacturing (including automotive and chemical), transportation, logistics, and healthcare industries. It is particularly well-suited for the manufacturing industry, which requires labeling for large parts as well as material labels that describe the type and contents of the handling unit and pallet.

Toshiba’s latest label printer’s most unique features include 305dpi high resolution print quality – via temperature control of thermal head – and faster throughput achieved through advanced data processing.

The innovatively-designed B-EX6 features an intuitive ribbon and paper setting and Toshiba’s original “bi-fold cover” to reduce footprint and opening space. Moreover, an optional built-in label cutter enables users to easily clean the cutter blade. Toshiba’s label printer includes both USB and Ethernet ports for easy connectivity. Connecting to smart devices can also be achieved via the Bluetooth, and allows parameter settings directly from the user’s smart phone or mobile device.

B-EX6 includes Toshiba’s leading ribbon saving capability, rugged design, and extended long-life print head. The label printer additionally includes the capability to store 800 meter ribbons which reduces the need to replace labels by half*.

“We are excited to introduce our latest label printer for customers seeking to address a diverse array of labeling needs. B-EX6 combines ease-of-operation functionality with premium capabilities while lowering customers’ operating costs. We believe our new flagship model is the best label printer in its class,” says Michio Suzuki, the General Manager of Auto-ID Business Group.

Toshiba’s new industrial-grade label printer has been planned and developed with “Together Information” in mind – Toshiba Tec Printing Solutions’ vision of how people and organizations create, record, share, manage and display ideas and data. This concept is reflected in the global message for the new product: “Connect. Integrate. Simplify. - Technology for every workspace, delivering advanced functionality, ease of use and peace of mind.”
Understanding that every industry has unique workflow needs, Toshiba has developed barcode products to fit a wide array of organizations’ label printing needs.
