MELVILLE, N.Y. – Canon U.S.A. Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, in collaboration with TEKLYNX International, the global leader in barcode label and RFID software, today announced the development of new TEKLYNX native printer drivers for Canon’s on-demand color label printer lineup. These drivers are compatible with Canon’s LX-D1300, LX-D5500, and LX-P1300 label printers. With TEKLYNX barcode and label design software, and the new drivers, these Canon label printers are designed to help produce a high volume of labels for production use, speed up the label design process, and allow users to easily create unique, eye-popping, and colorful labels.

“Canon’s collaboration with TEKLYNX demonstrates our commitment to our customers, providing companies with the ability to print colorful and vivid labels quickly and efficiently,” said Isao “Sammy” Kobayashi, senior vice president and general manager, Canon U.S.A., Inc. “Customers in a wide range of industries will be able to make good use of the TEKLYNX software with these new drivers.”

TEKLYNX created these drivers for a positive user experience. TEKLYNX barcode label design software products – LABEL MATRIX, LABELVIEW, and CODESOFT – will help Canon label printer users maintain their respective brand consistency, with the ability to create preformatted templates which help increase the accuracy of the prints. There is an easy-to-use label design interface, and users can create hundreds of different barcodes along with variable data. Companies using the software will be better equipped to manage on-demand color labeling solutions to help meet customer requests and optimize print output. The Canon label printers, when combined with the TEKLYNX software, can benefit companies in industries such as manufacturing, packaging, retail, wholesale, and transportation/shipping.

“With TEKLYNX barcode label design software, what you see is what you get – our native embedded printer drivers print labels that are extremely accurate to what you see on the screen,” said Travis Wayne, product manager, TEKLYNX Americas, Inc. “We are looking forward to having Canon users experience the quality and efficiency this software has to offer.”
