OPTIONS & ACCESSORIES

 

Expand Your Capabilities

H-Class printers are offered with a wide variety of options and accessories to meet the needs of many industrial applications.  A complete list of options and accessories are available on the partner center.  The most commonly used options are listed below:

 

Thermal Transfer
A printing method that uses ribbon to produce exceptional image clarity, as compared to most direct thermal media types. The 4-section split-hub design allows for lower torque on narrow ribbons. This option can be used with either coated-side-in or coated-side-out ribbons. 

 

Basic Peel & Present
A simple "plate" style design that automatically separates most printed labels from the backing material and allows subsequent printing to occur only after the removal of a previously printed label. Minimum label length is 1.5 inches (38 mm). 

 

Heavy Duty Peel & Present (4" printers only)
An internally "overdriven" design for heavy duty requirements using aggressive adhesive or polyester type media. Minimum label length is 1.5 inches (38 mm). 

 

Cutter
Plug-and-play: attach the cutter and it is auto detected during power up. The rotary style mechanism is capable of cutting media from 0.0025” to 0.0100” (0.0635mm - 0.254mm) thick, and has a minimum lifespan of 500,000 cuts. 

 

Internal Rewind
"X" Models:A heavy-duty label rewind option using a dedicated DC motor to tightly rewind a full 8" roll of labels and backing onto a 3" diameter core.
Standard Models:A heavy-duty label rewind option to tightly rewind a partial 5.5" roll of labels and backing onto a 3" diameter core.

 

Present Sensor
An output control device that allows subsequent printing to occur only after the removal of a previously printed label. 

 

Linear Scanner
This new design checks every printed barcode label. If unreadable it will automatically void the labels containing failed bar codes. Supports picket fence style bar codes.
