There has been a lot of talk recently in the pharmacy industry about printing prescription labels on thermal printers as opposed to laser printers. In fact, many major pharmacy software providers are writing support for thermal printers in their workflow applications.

Thermal printers meet the many labeling requirements of your pharmacy operations and cost less to use than laser printers. Thermal printers provide reliable performance because they are built specifically for label printing. They load easily and consume less expensive media that produces virtually no waste and does not require ribbons or expensive toner. Rolls of prescription labels follow a straight path through the printer and save time and money by preventing jams and by allowing you to print more labels without changing media. These features add to lower total cost of ownership compared to other print technologies.

Features, Advantages and Benefits of Thermal Printers

Quickly and quietly produce easy-to-read prescription labels on-demand complete with warning labels.
Thermal printers support numerous linear and two-dimensional barcode symbologies which allow you to easily include high quality barcodes on prescription labels and documentation.
Print prescription instructions and packaging labels with the same printer and include a matching barcode the pharmacist can scan as an added safety check to ensure prescriptions and patient instructions are matched correctly.
