TSC Printronix Auto ID, comprising two industry-leading barcode printer brands, has announced a new strategic partnership with SOTI, the world’s most trusted mobile and IoT management solutions provider. Together, the companies will offer a series of barcode printers that are compatible with SOTI’s newest IoT management solution, SOTI Connect.

TSC Printronix Auto ID mobile printers will also be added to the SOTI Connect compatible lineup later this year.

SOTI Connect enables TSC and Printronix Auto ID users to manage and maintain a fleet of barcode printers from a central dashboard and benefit from the reduced cost and complexity of managing a myriad of IoT devices.

“We are committed to providing our customers with high-performance printers, outstanding service and the tools they need to keep their business operating efficiently.

Our work with TSC Printronix Auto ID further complements SOTI Connect’s management portfolio, enabling our business-critical deployments to respond faster, perform more efficiently and deliver quality service.”
