Cognitive Solutions Unveils the Latest Innovation in Barcode Printers - the Compact Industrial Printer Series – in an International Product Roadshow

Golden, CO USA, March 29, 2006 - Cognitive Solutions, manufacturer of the world’s first desktop thermal label printer, launch their new and innovative Compact Industrial Printer series in cities across North America and Europe. These innovative thermal label printers fill the gap between today’s mid-range and desktop printers. The C Series barcode and label printers offer high performance, with six or eight inch per second print speeds, incredibly fast “first label out” print time and full communication options.

Designed with a footprint up to 30% smaller than other leading thermal printers of equivalent performance, the C series will go where leading mid range big box printers have been unable to fit. The C Series printers have mid-range thermal printer productivity at desktop prices.

Additionally these printers are fully compliant with the European Union directive on Waste Electric and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) and the equivalent domestic legislation which implements the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS).

Cognitive’s Product Launch Road Show begins in early April and will continue through the summer. The first launch stops include the United Kingdom, Canada, and United States. Future shows will include the Asia Pacific, Latin America, and other European countries.
