Out in the field, you don’t have time for uncertainty. Having the ability to print well logs right where the work happens—in the truck, on site, and on schedule—keeps your operations moving and your team focused on results instead of delays.
That’s why Neuralog’s NT1000 Thermal Truck Printer is the trusted standard across the oil and gas industry. Built rugged and MIL-STD-810H certified for shock and vibration, the NT1000 is designed to deliver consistent, high-quality well log prints wherever you need them.
Now, with the release of Firmware Version 2.25 and Windows Driver Version 1.0.16, the NT1000 is even smarter. The new enhancements improve image quality, extend hardware life, and give users more control over how they print in the field.
Sharper, More Detailed Prints
The NT1000’s new firmware introduces expanded 256-color halftone processing, enabling more precise grayscale reproduction and smoother transitions between light and dark areas.
For field users, this means clearer visuals on every log — whether you’re interpreting subtle formation boundaries or comparing multiple runs side-by-side. The result is a professional, easy-to-read printout that matches the precision of your data.
Smarter Heat Management
One of the standout upgrades is the new dot history function, an intelligent temperature regulation system that actively monitors printhead usage and heat buildup.
By tracking pixel activity and dynamically adjusting energy output, this function prevents overheating during extended print runs. The result? Cooler, more consistent output and a significant increase in printhead longevity — reducing the need for maintenance and ensuring reliability shift after shift.
For operators printing continuously in challenging conditions, this translates directly to less downtime, fewer consumable replacements, and more confidence in the field.
Customizable Print Speeds
Every operation is unique, and now, so is your printer.
With the NT1000’s new adjustable print speed controls, users can fine-tune speeds between 40 mm/sec (1.6 in/sec) and 100 mm/sec (4 in/sec) to balance speed and print density.
Need to produce large-volume logs quickly? Use higher speeds to improve heat dissipation and maintain consistent coverage.
Working on a detailed interpretation job that demands precision? Slow the speed down to ensure line-by-line accuracy.
This new flexibility puts control into the hands of the field user — letting you optimize performance for your specific environment and workflow.
Improved Job Handling
In fast-paced field conditions, small improvements can make a big difference. The NT1000 now automatically cancels print jobs when paper runs out or when the printer is rebooted.
This prevents incomplete data from printing as random characters and ensures a clean, reliable restart every time. It’s one of those smart, behind-the-scenes features that keep field operations running smoothly and reduce wasted paper.
A Trusted Field Solution — Now Even Better
The NT1000 has long been the preferred choice for well log printing in mobile environments, known for its compact 3U rack-mount design, durability, and integration with industry-standard software like Warrior, WellCAD, and NeuraView.
With these latest updates, Neuralog has taken an already proven solution and made it even more powerful. Every enhancement — from smarter printhead control to customizable speeds — was designed with real-world field users in mind.
When you’re out in the field, reliability isn’t a luxury — it’s a requirement. And the NT1000 continues to deliver.
