Features:

Printing Performance

• Printing Technology: Employs thermal transfer printing, producing high-quality and durable labels that resist fading, scratches, and chemicals compared to direct thermal labels. This makes them ideal for applications where labels need to withstand moderate wear and tear, such as:

  • Shipping and receiving labels
  • Product identification labels
  • Asset tracking labels

• Print Resolution: Delivers a print resolution of 203 dpi (dots per inch), which is suitable for printing clear and legible text, barcodes, and logos.

• Print Speed: Offers a print speed of up to 4 inches (101.6 mm) per second, making it efficient for handling smaller printing volumes. This speed is sufficient for tasks like printing a few shipping labels at a time.

Media Handling

• Maximum Print Width: Accommodates media with a maximum width of 4.3 inches (110 mm), allowing for printing a variety of label sizes for different applications.

• Maximum Print Length: Can handle labels with a maximum print length of up to 39 inches (99 cm), catering to longer labels if needed, such as for shelf labels or picking tickets.

• Media Loading: Features a user-friendly clamshell design for simple and convenient media loading. This simplifies the process of replacing label rolls.

Connectivity and User Interface

• Connectivity Options: Provides multiple connectivity options for flexible integration into your network:

  • USB device for connecting directly to a PC.
  • USB host for connecting external drives or keyboards, allowing for potential standalone printing operations.

• Optional Feature: Factory-installed Ethernet is available in some models for network printing, enabling multiple users to access the printer on a shared network.

• LED Display and Feed Button: Equipped with a single feed button and an LED display for basic operation and status monitoring. The LED display shows basic information like printer status (ready, printing, error) and can be easier to navigate than a complex menu system for simple printing tasks.

Additional Features

• Memory: Includes a limited amount of internal memory for storing basic settings and potentially a few frequently used label formats. This can help save time when recalling common labels.

• Compact Design: Features a lightweight and space-saving design that fits well in smaller workspaces. This makes it ideal for offices, retail counters, or light industrial settings where space is limited.

• Ribbon Handling: Supports ribbons with cores of either 0.5 inches (12.7 mm) or 1 inch (25.4 mm) diameter, offering some flexibility in choosing ribbons. The larger cores allow for less frequent changes.

• Industry Standard Languages: Supports common printer command languages like Direct Protocol (DP), ZSim (ZPL II), and ESim (EPL), ensuring compatibility with various label design software. This allows you to use a variety of software programs to create and print your labels.

• Quiet Operation: The PC43t is known for its quiet operation, making it suitable for use in noise-sensitive environments like offices or libraries.
