Features:

Printing Performance:

• Printing Method: Supports both direct thermal and thermal transfer printing methods:
  • Direct thermal uses heat to activate a special coating on the label, suitable for paper labels that don't require extreme durability.
  • Thermal transfer utilizes a ribbon to transfer ink onto the label, producing more durable prints for applications like plastic, fabric, or weather-resistant labels.
• Print Resolution: Offers a high resolution of 300 dpi (dots per inch), providing sharp and clear prints for intricate barcodes, graphics, or small text on labels.
• Print Speed: Delivers labels at a rate of up to 5 inches per second (ips), ensuring efficient printing for moderate to high-volume tasks.
• Maximum Print Width: Accommodates labels up to 4.7 inches (120 millimeters) wide, offering flexibility for various label sizes.

Media Handling and Usability:

• Industrial Design: Boasts a heavy-duty metal construction for reliable operation in harsh environments and continuous printing.
• Large Media Capacity: Holds up to 360 meters of media, minimizing media changes and downtime.
• Adjustable Media Sensors: Includes both reflective and transmissive sensors for automatic media detection and adjustment, ensuring accurate printing on various media types and thicknesses.
• Easy Media Loading: Features a user-friendly design for effortless media loading and a peel-off bar for easy label removal (depending on the model).

Connectivity and User Experience:

• Multiple Interface Options (Optional): Offers connection flexibility with options including Ethernet, parallel port, RS-232, USB device, and PS/2 keyboard. (Ethernet might be an optional feature on some models). This allows for integration into wired networks, direct computer connections, or even connecting an external keyboard for added functionality.
• Standard Controls: Includes LED indicators for status monitoring (power, printing, errors) and a feed button for manual label feeding if needed. An LCD display may be included on some models for enhanced user interaction and configuration.

Additional Features:

• Memory: Equipped with 8MB Flash ROM and 16MB SDRAM memory for buffer storage of fonts, graphics, and formats used for printing.
• Real-Time Clock (RTC) (Optional): Allows you to print timestamps directly on labels for better record-keeping (might be an optional feature on some models).
• Durable Cutter and Peeler (Optional): Some models may include a built-in cutter and peeler for automatic label separation after printing, improving workflow efficiency.
• Media Stacker (Optional): An optional media stacker attachment can be added on some models for organized stacking of printed labels.
• Ribbon Handling: Features efficient ribbon rewind/feeding mechanisms to optimize the use of thermal transfer ribbons.
• Emulations: Supports various printer language emulations (PPLA/PPLB/PPLZ) for compatibility with existing printing software.
