Truly a printer you can stand on!

Cognitive's flagship product, the AdvantageLX (formerly known as the Blaster or Blazer), is still the preferred industry choice for mission critical desktop printer applications. It remains a much beloved printer by both its users and our resellers.

“AdvantageLX earns its reputation as the mission critical desktop every day,” says Raul Palacios, Cognitive's Director of Business Development. “Our resellers trust the AdvantageLX to perform and to survive in the most demanding of environments,” he says. “Almost nothing stops these printers.”
