PAPSTAR - Germany

PAPSTAR installed Toshiba B-SX4 RFID-enabled barcode printers at their central warehousing centre, seamlessly linking in with the company's SAP business suite.

“We looked carefully at the available options and solutions and without any doubt Toshiba proved Best in Class,“ said Gregor Falke, CIO PAPSTAR, “More importantly, Toshiba delivered on all accounts. It was that simple. Within one week of installation, the B-SX4 barcode printers were producing RFID tags using the EPC global standard and meeting all of METRO's qualification tests. From here on it was plain sailing. Our logistics operations continue to grow and Toshiba continues to provide solutions that matter to our business.“

First Great Western - UK

First Great Western, which operates high speed, commuter, regional and branch line train services, were looking for a robust and reliable solution to print tickets for their reserved seat service.

“The BCI functionality of the Toshiba B-SA4 printers made the upgrade from our original dot-matrix printers easy to achieve and allowed the continous use of our existing software“, said Zoe Hennings, Yield Manager at First Great Western. “Added to this the B-SA4 is easy to use with a simple media path and auto-calibration functionality. The compact footprint of the printer allowed easy integration into tight spaces - an important factor in small crowded tickets offices“.
