Thermal printer supplies management
The main objective of Thermal printer supplies management in NDD Orbix is to support the efficient management of printer supplies, ensuring accurate replenishment and optimizing costs. In corporate environments with many devices, this management is essential to avoid interruptions in operations and maintain productivity.
This feature searches to increase operational efficiency, minimize waste and ensure continuous availability of supplies. As supplies represent one of the largest operating expenses, managing them efficiently is critical to profitability.
Effective supply management not only ensures uninterrupted service continuity, but also improves the quality of customer service. By avoiding unnecessary purchases and ensuring that thermal printers are always operational, the organization delivers on its promise of agility and savings for the final customer.
In addition, accurate control of supplies directly impacts strategic areas such as logistics and inventory optimization, allowing adjustments that increase profitability and eliminate extra costs from unnecessary shipments or financially unbalanced contracts.

How supplies management works
The agent continuously collects data on supplies in use in the thermal printers and sends it to NDD Orbix, where it is processed to generate detailed indicators that assist in proactive fleet management.
Supplies indicators
The data collected is listed in indicators that assist in decision making, aiming to make the operation more profitable.
Yield
The yield indicator represents the percentage of available supplies used.
Example:
If a supply has the capacity to print 1,000 meters and has already printed 900 meters, the yield is 90%.
This indicator is essential for monitoring supply consumption and assisting in the management of supplies, as well as enabling billing for waste.
Average yield per day
The indicator shows the average daily consumption of meters (Thermal Paper, Thermal Transfer Paper or Ribbon) or units (Cutter) printed by the printer, allowing the provider to understand the consumption profile of the devices. This information is essential for the relocation of printers and to predict the end date of a supply.
Running low by
The running low indicator shows when supplies will run out, helping with replenishment planning. With this indicator, you can send supplies at the right time, preventing thermal printers from going down.
Supplies replenishment
Supply replenishment in NDD Orbix is essential to ensure that the organization maintains efficient and continuous operation for its customers.
Using high-tech algorithms and with unique accuracy in the market, the system generates alerts for supplies running low, allowing for the optimization of logistics and purchasing costs. This accurate and dynamic replenishment offers comprehensive cost management and visibility into the financial health of contracts.
Supply running low alerts and demand generation
The system is designed to alert situations of supplies running low based on criteria such as running low by (equal to or less than 30 days), yield (equal to or greater than 80%) and level (when the level is low). These criteria are configured as default, but can be adjusted according to the organization's needs.
After the alerts are generated, they can be transformed into demands to start the replenishment process. The system offers complete automation of the supply demand life cycle, allowing for effective management, with action auditing and detailed status tracking. This ensures transparency and control over each stage, from the identification of the need to the final replenishment.
After analyzing the demands, they can be finalized (manually or automatically) or rejected.
This efficient and detailed management of demands ensures that the replenishment process occurs accurately and quickly, avoiding service interruptions and improving operational efficiency.
Thermal printer supplies management in NDD Orbix ensures operational efficiency and cost optimization in all printing environments. With automated processes and a proactive approach, the feature offers complete control over supplies, preventing interruptions and improving the quality of service offered to customers.
