Fulfillment Services: Are Printers Getting It?

The problem I find most often is that the software is not fully implemented; functions that should be fully automated are completed by hand. The integration with the shipping carrier’s (UPS, FedEx and DHL) workstation is a good example. The systems are designed to communicate automatically through the local area network to the shipping workstation, which means that when a package arrives at the station for shipment the operator need only scan the pick slip bar code, place it on the scale and apply the shipping label.
