Features:

Printing Performance:

• Printing Method: Likely utilizes thermal transfer printing, employing a ribbon to transfer ink onto the label for increased durability and resistance to chemicals, moisture, or abrasion. This makes it suitable for labels on products, assets, or items requiring long lifespans or use in harsh environments.
• Print Resolution: Resolution might be around 203 dpi (dots per inch), providing a balance between print speed and readability for most text-based labels with basic barcodes.
• Print Speed: Speed might be in the range of 2 to 4 inches per second (ips), sufficient for moderate printing volumes.
• Maximum Print Width: Likely accommodates labels up to 4 inches (104 millimeters) wide, offering flexibility for various label sizes.

Media Handling and Usability:

• Entry-Level Design: Might feature a plastic construction, suitable for light-duty printing needs in offices or retail environments.
• Standard Media Capacity: Might hold a moderate amount of media, requiring more frequent media changes for high-volume printing.
• Media Sensors: Likely includes sensors to detect label gaps or media presence for smooth operation.
• Ribbon Handling: Mechanisms for efficient ribbon rewind/feed would be included to optimize the use of thermal transfer ribbons.

Connectivity and User Experience:

• Interface Options: Might include a parallel port for connection to a computer. Some models may have offered additional options like USB.
• Standard Controls: Likely included LED indicators for status monitoring (power, printing, errors) and buttons for basic operations (feed, pause/cancel). An LCD display might have been an option on some models for enhanced user interaction.
• Software Compatibility: Likely supported a variety of barcode label design software programs for creating and managing labels.

Additional Features (limited information due to potential discontinuation):

• Memory: Likely equipped with memory (capacity unknown) for buffer storage of fonts, graphics, and formats used for printing.
• Durability: While thermal transfer printing offers some durability, the plastic construction might make it less suitable for harsh environments compared to industrial-grade printers.
