What if the best position for the operator panel is not where the manufacturer decided it should be? In industrial environments, printers are rarely installed in ideal conditions. They are integrated into: conveyor systems packaging lines logistics workstations automated production processes That’s why the Microplex SOLID 60A3 allows the operator panel to be mounted in different positions depending on the installation layout and operator requirements. (A special Operator Panel Relocation Kit is available.) The panel can be installed at the front right side or at the rear left side of the printer, allowing optimal accessibility based on: printer orientation document […]…continue

That’s where true integration makes the difference. Conveyors, scanners, sorters – everything runs in sync. With Microplex printing solutions, your print process becomes part of that synchronization. The optional GPIO interface is fully integrated into the printer control system and managed directly by the Microplex Print Controller. Thanks to this, Microplex printers evolve from simple output devices into an active element of your automation. What makes this different with Microplex? Direct PLC communication: Microplex printers exchange signals in real time with your conveyor systems – no complex integration layers needed. Print exactly when the process requires it – for higher […]…continue

In high-performance logistics environments, printing is not just a peripheral — it’s a critical part of the process. When invoices and delivery notes are printed inline within picking systems, every second counts. That’s why our UK partner Precision Peripherals Ltd — responsible for supporting large distribution and shipping centers with business-critical printing applications, particularly based on the SOLID 60A3 — recently invested in advanced technical training at the Microplex headquarters. A special thanks to Mr. Jack Paul, who successfully completed intensive service training on the SOLID 60A3. The goal: Equip service expertise that delivers fast, precise solutions — ideally on […]…continue

What keeps high-volume logistics moving? Modern fulfillment centers process thousands of orders within minutes. Automation handles storage, picking and packing — but one element connects the digital workflow with the physical shipment: Reliable document and label printing. Shipping labels, packing lists and routing documents must be printed instantly and without interruption. If printing slows down, the entire shipping process slows down. In high-throughput logistics environments, every second counts — and every printed document keeps the process moving. The Microplex solution: Thanks to multi-emulation, Microplex printers can process the printer languages of thermal, matrix and laser print technologies — allowing a […]…continue

In modern shipping logistics, the printer is no longer just an output device. It is a synchronization point within the automation chain — and a direct lever for higher throughput. At automated packing and conveyor stations, timing defines performance. If documents are printed too early, too late, or without process synchronization, buffers build up. Lines slow down. Manual intervention increases. This is where the Microplex SOLID 60A3 makes the difference. Videos GPIO – Direct Machine Communication The optional GPIO interface enables real-time signal exchange with conveyor systems and PLC-controlled environments: Print release triggered by the line Ready/Busy/Error signals fed back […]…continue

The Microplex GPIO interface is designed for seamless integration into industrial environments. It enables direct printer interaction with PLC systems, automated workflows, and higher-level control architectures. Now we are taking this functionality one step further. With the new GPIO Splitter, the integration possibilities are significantly expanded. Simultaneous operation of signal tower and full GPIO functionality Fully compatible with existing installed GPIO options No changes required to current system configurations Enhanced signaling and integration flexibility This means: Your printer can continue communicating with automation systems via GPIO — while the signal tower simultaneously provides clear and immediate visual status indication. And […]…continue

In chemical production, labeling is not optional — it’s a safety-critical process. When a global chemical manufacturer set up a new labeling solution at its Czech Republic site, the requirements were clear from the start: small-format GHS labels, unmistakable hazard highlighting, reliable operation — and immediate availability. The decision The customer deliberately chose Microplex Printware AG and the logiJET TC8 for this new installation. Not as a simple printer choice — but as a strategic decision for safety, flexibility, and long-term operability. Two-color GHS printing for clear visual hazard differentiation Reliable output on compact labels (145 × 45 mm PT […]…continue
