Why a Thermal Printer Is a Must-Have for Every Online Seller in Malaysia
If you're running an e-commerce online business in Malaysia, whether on Shopee, Lazada, TikTok Shop, or your own website, efficient order processing is key to customer satisfaction. One essential tool that can significantly improve your workflow is the thermal printer.
At Sumopack, we’ve helped thousands of SMEs and online sellers streamline their packing and shipping process with reliable thermal printers and top-quality packaging supplies.
What Is a Thermal Printer?
A thermal printer uses heat to print on specially coated thermal paper. Unlike inkjet or laser printers, it doesn’t use any ink or toner, which means lower maintenance and operating costs. Thermal printers are widely used for printing airway bills, shipping labels, barcodes, receipts, and more.
Benefits of Using a Thermal Printer
1. Fast Printing Speed
Thermal printers print at high speed. This is crucial during peak sales periods when you're processing hundreds of orders a day.
2. Cost-Effective
No need for ink or toner! Thermal printers only require thermal paper or thermal stickers, which you can get at competitive prices from Sumopack.
3. Sharp and Smudge-Free Labels
Shipping labels need to be readable by courier scanners. Thermal printers produce clear, smudge-resistant labels that won’t fade easily.
4. Compact and User-Friendly
Most thermal printers are compact, making them perfect for home-based businesses or small office setups. Setup is simple and most models support plug-and-play with Shopee, Ninja Van, J&T, and other major courier services.
