Loftware and SATO Corporation announced the availability of their cloud-connected label printing solution for AEP-equipped SATO printers1. This comes at a time when the adoption of cloud-based technologies is on the rise, with the Loftware/SATO partnership supporting this shift to streamline business processes and enhance supply chain agility. The joint solution, which connects Loftware Cloud with SATO's cloud-connected printers, eliminates printer driver dependencies, allowing IT teams to avoid installation, troubleshooting, updates, and management.
This significantly reduces maintenance and support costs, while enabling businesses to print from any PC browser, providing flexibility to scale or adapt operations without technical constraints. It also enhances in-plant labeling for better process control within factories, ensures retail labeling consistency with industry standards, and streamlines third-party logistics (3PL) labeling for seamless integration with logistics providers. Loftware Cloud expands labeling capabilities across internal stakeholders, external suppliers, co-manufacturers, and co-packers, who all play a role in the complex supply chain process.
With seamless integration into both on-premise and cloud-based business applications such as ERP, WMS, and PLM, Loftware Cloud optimizes workflows for greater efficiency and accuracy. SATO's cloud-connected printer further enhance this solution with effortless installation and mobility. Simply connecting a LAN cable ensures the printer is ready for immediate use.
This plug-and-play functionality makes it easy to relocate printers as needed, giving businesses the flexibility to adapt to changing operational demands.
