SATO LT408 — 4-INCH THERMAL PRINT ENGINE FOR PRINT-AND-APPLY APPLICATIONS
The SATO LT408 has been designed and manufactured to provide a cost-effective solution for the print-and-apply market. When integrated with an applicator system, the LT408 delivers automated label application for low-throughput operations — replacing labor-intensive hand labeling and expensive pre-printed carton inventory with a reliable, affordable print-and-apply solution.

A true print-engine-style printer, the LT408 features an integrated applicator interface port, large LCD display with icon-driven user interface, and easy-to-service components designed for minimal downtime. Tool-less one-touch printhead replacement and bi-directional ribbon drive compatibility make the LT408 one of the easiest print engines in its class to operate and maintain.
