Oil Change Stations

You've seen them and you've used them: "Next Service Due" labels from your local automotive lube shop. Many service stations choose the Cognitive Advantage LX printer to print these labels because of the decreased cost of thermal printing, small footprint, and rugged and reliable performance.

Sample Application – Most Major Oil Change Stations
One major automotive service chain upgraded to Cognitive's Advantage LX printers because of the cost of form paper printed on impact printers.  Not only was the cost of the media substantial, the print performance was marginal and the print quality was poor.  The Advantage LX printers are used to print the Static Service Due labels.  The printer was the obvious choice because of its: 

  • Lower media costs
  • Darker, higher quality printing
  • Faster printing
  • Small printer fits in a crowded work environment
  • Rugged printer that withstands the abuse of an auto service shop
