The specific application of thermal paper in express logistics is very extensive, mainly reflected in the following aspects:
First, print the express sheet and label
Courier slips: Thermal paper is widely used to print Courier slips, which contain key information such as the recipient and sender's details and the tracking number of the goods. Express sheets printed on thermal paper are clear and easy to read, allowing couriers to sort and deliver packages quickly and accurately (source: see Article 5).
Logistics labels: In addition to express waybills, thermal paper is also used to print various logistics labels, such as pick-up code labels, warning labels, etc. These labels help logistics companies track and manage goods throughout the transportation process, ensuring the safe and timely delivery of goods (source: Reference Article 2).
Second, improve logistics efficiency and accuracy
Instant printing: The thermal printer can print out important information such as waybills and face bills in real time, without waiting for ink to dry or other post-processing steps, which greatly improves the transportation speed and efficiency of logistics (source: refer to article 6).
Reduce errors: the printing quality of thermal labels is clear, and the recognition rate of text patterns is high, which can effectively avoid errors and omissions in the logistics process. At the same time, coding methods such as barcodes or two-dimensional codes make it easier and more accurate to track and manage goods (source: see articles 6, 7).
Third, environmental protection and economy
Environmental protection: Thermal labels do not require the use of any ink, eliminating ink pollution to the environment. In addition, thermal paper can usually be recycled and reused, in line with the environmental requirements of the modern logistics industry (source: reference article 6).
Economy: Compared with other printing methods, the cost of thermal labels is lower. Logistics companies using thermal paper to print labels can save money and time and reduce overall operating costs (source: refer to article 6).
Fourth, improve user experience
Clear information: The label information printed on thermal paper is clear and readable, which facilitates the recipient to quickly understand the package information and improves the user experience.
Privacy protection: With the promotion of privacy sheets, thermal paper is also used to print sheets that hide part of personal information to protect the privacy of users (source: refer to article 5).
In summary, the specific applications of thermal paper in express logistics include printing express waybills and labels, improving logistics efficiency and accuracy, environmental protection and economy, and improving user experience. These applications make thermal paper an indispensable material in the express logistics industry.
