the e-studio series, an evolutionary family of
information devices that fit perfectly within
commercial information environments.
High Performance, Quality Industrial Printers
The B-SX6 and B-SX8 wide web printers from Toshiba with RFID functionality
and powerful networking deliver outstanding performance for a wide variety
of environments and applications. These innovative industrial printers offer
advanced features including extremely fast processing, large internal memory,
web printer controls, outstanding SNMP networking tools* and RFID options.
Suitable ApplicationsB-SX6 & B-SX8
The Toshiba B-SX6/8 printers
with RFID functionality and the
ultimate in networking tools.
Speed and
Functionality
Utilising ground breaking CPU technology from Toshiba the B-SX6/8
models offer high-speed printing and
enhanced processing via an extensive
choice of interfaces - including USB
and internal LAN. The options of serial,
wireless LAN and RFID interfaces
provide additional flexibility and choice,
making these printers adaptable to
the widest variety of environments
and applications.
High Print Quality
The B-SX6/8 305 dpi, 170.5 mm /
213.3 mm wide print heads facilitate
speedy printing of large format compliance labels. A floating print head
mechanism guarantees superb print
quality with reduced friction and a flat
paper path. The ribbon save function
conserves the ribbon when it is not
required, reducing costs, the amount of
down-time required for ribbon changing
(available as standard on the B-SX8)
and allowing optimal performance for
RFID encoding work.
Future Proofing
For future proofing, the B-SX6/8
printers are compatible with legacy
systems, Toshiba or non-Toshiba.

data can be manipulated to generate
the correct label formats. The BCI
can also communicate with external
devices allowing the easy integration of
other technology systems.
Fully Compatible
B-682/882/672/872
Software and supplies are compatible
with Toshiba’s previous range-topping
models - the B-682, B-882, B-672 and
B-872 printers. Existing media stock
and grades do not need to
be changed.
SNMP Tools
The B-SX6 and B-SX8 come with a free
Central Network Management Suite that
allows the user to:
l Manage all the Toshiba printers attached
to the network through their IP address.
l Exhibit system information and
firmware versions, allowing firmware
to be updated across the network
simultaneously.
l View the status of each individual
printer connected to the network in
real-time with real-time alerts
(including viewing web pages).
l View a graphical display of the
alerted error with instructions on the
actions necessary to resolve it. It can
even give the number of the service
call centre when needed.
Lower Cost of
Ownership
All Toshiba products are manufactured
at Toshiba’s own facilities providing the
assurance of complete reliability and
quality of key components essential for
low overall cost of ownership.
To lower the cost of ownership further
the B-SX6/8 printers have large
internal memory as standard with no
requirement for costly PCMCIA boards
or ATA memory cards.
Rugged and Robust
A field-proven heavy duty steel cabinet
and sturdy inner mechanism combine
to offer the B-SX6 and B-SX8 the same
robustness and reliability as the rest
of the Toshiba SX series of industrial
printers. These printers may be used
with media inside or externally.
RFID Ready
All of Toshiba’s new generation of
thermal printers for the industrial
environment are RFID ready.
This provides not only essential
flexibility for the end-user to choose
the RFID module that best meets the
needs of their business and suppliers,
but also ensures a future-proofed
printing solution that can evolve and
grow with the future demands of
the organisation.
