Allows for tailor-made labeling applications including PC-less printing, direct connection of peripherals such as keyboards, scanners and scales for data input

What is AEP?

Imagine using powerful on-board intelligence that enables you to customize printer operations to significantly simplify the labeling process. Your costs would decrease while operational efficiency would improve. That is exactly what AEP does.

PC-less

Eliminates the need for separate printers and PCs, with no third-party software for OS and middleware, no licenses required and easier update roll out.

Peripheral device connection

Printer can process info internally and link to devices such as scanners, weighing scales, thermometers and PLC.

Onboard intelligence

Decisions are made by printer and not by unqualified staff.

Cloud enablement

Connect the printer directly to IT and cloud systems.

Customer Benefits

Perfect fit
