TSC UPDATES LABEL
PRINTER RANGE
Techspan Industrial Printing Systems Limited is part of the Techspan
Group of companies and this year is celebrating 40 years in business.
“As the New Zealand authorised
partner of TSC we offer the full
range of TSC label printers, available
on our dedicated e-commerce web
site, or direct from Techspan,” says
Jon Fastnedge, director.
Techspan, he explains, has a
reputation as a supplier of quality
products and services and has built
the company on this philosophy.
“This is part of the reason for our
longevity and the range of TSC
printers perfectly complements this
model.”
TSC has been manufacturing
label printers since 1991 and has
supplied over 4 million printers
into the market in more than 90
countries. It is an award-winning,
top-5 global manufacturer of label
printers worldwide, with a market

Techspan Industrial Printing
Systems Limited also converts
a large range of thermal transfer
ribbon from ‘Jumbo’ rolls to printerready
rolls. The company has been
converting thermal transfer ribbon
and coding foils since 1999 when an
SME Quadro 400 high speed slitting
machine was installed.
“Now, we are a major converter
of thermal transfer ribbon in New
Zealand, supplying ribbon from
Ricoh Japan, NCR USA, Iimak USA,
as well as suppliers in Germany,
France and Taiwan.”
Black ribbon is supplied in all
grades: wax, wax resin and resin for
flat head printers (Zebra, Datamax,
Meto, Sato, TSC and Intermec to
name a few) and near edge printers
(Toshiba, Avery, Markem-Imaje,
Easyprint, Domino, Link).
“We also stock over 50 coloured
ribbons for flat head printers in
wax resin and resin grades. Also
including metallic in gold, silver,
red and blue. We have the ability
to slit ribbon to any width and
length our customers require, and
on cardboard or plastic cores to
accommodate any printer type,”
says Jon.
As well as ribbons for desktop
and industrial label printers, the
company also supplies ribbon for
TTO inline high-speed thermal
coders.
Printheads for all printer types and
a range of blank label stock is also
available.
“It is becoming harder to save
money on consumables in the
competitive New Zealand market,
but label printing consumables
remain in front as an effective way
to reduce costs. As a converter of
these we are confident we can save
you money, possibly thousands of
dollars.”
