Features:

Printing Performance:

• Printing Method: Utilizes thermal transfer printing, employing a ribbon to transfer ink onto the label for maximum durability and resistance to chemicals, moisture, or abrasion. This makes it suitable for labels on products, assets, or items in harsh environments or requiring long lifespans.
• Print Resolution: Offers a standard resolution of 203 dpi (dots per inch), providing a good balance between print speed and readability for most industrial applications. Higher resolution options (up to 300 dpi) might be available on some models for finer details in barcodes or graphics.
• Print Speed: Delivers labels at a rate of up to 6 inches per second (ips), ensuring efficient printing for moderate to high-volume tasks.
• Maximum Print Width: Accommodates labels up to 4.25 inches (108 millimeters) wide, offering flexibility for various label sizes commonly used in industrial settings.

Media Handling and Usability:

• Industrial Design: Features a robust metal construction for reliable operation in harsh industrial environments and continuous printing jobs.
• Large Media Capacity: Holds a significant amount of media, reducing media changes and increasing productivity (exact capacity may vary depending on media roll size).
• Automatic Media Sensors: Sensors automatically detect label gaps, media presence, and ribbon tear for smooth operation and timely identification of potential issues.
• User-Friendly Design: Depending on the model, it might feature an easy-open clamshell or top-feed design for simplified media loading.

Connectivity and User Experience:

• Multiple Interface Options: Provides connection flexibility with Ethernet, USB device, and RS-232 interfaces for wired connections to integrate with networks or computers. Some models may include additional options like parallel ports.
• Standard Controls: Includes LED indicators for status monitoring (power, printing, errors) and buttons for basic operations (feed, pause/cancel). An LCD display and keypad may be included on some models for enhanced user interaction and configuration.
• Emulation Capabilities: May support various printer language emulations (potentially including Datamax® I-Class™, DMX400™, Zebra® ZPL-II®) for compatibility with existing barcode label design software programs.

Additional Features:

• Memory: Equipped with memory (capacity varies depending on the model) for buffer storage of fonts, graphics, and formats used for printing.
• Software Compatibility: Likely supports a variety of barcode label design software programs for creating and managing your labels.
• Durability: Built to withstand demanding industrial printing environments.
• Optional Features: Some models may offer additional features like:
  • Linerless label compatibility (reducing waste and label costs).
  • Cutter mechanism for automatic label separation after printing (improving workflow efficiency).
  • Peel-off mechanism for automatic label removal after printing (improving workflow efficiency).
  • Security functionalities like password protection or encryption to safeguard sensitive printing data.
