Main Features <Easy Access - Easy Operation> <Hi-OpenTM printer case> The printer is designed for all day-to-day operations to be accessible from the front of the printer so there is no need to move items near to the printer for access for media loading. The main printer's case lifts directly upwards meaning that no space is needed on either side of the printer. The power switch is located in a recessed panel at the front of the printer so it can be easily accessed without moving the printer. <The Easiest Media Loading> The Hi-LiftTM metal print head mechanism opens so that it is completely clear of the media path so that the paper can be loaded without any part of the printer in the way. <Easy Printer Control and Configuration> <Dual Programming Language> <Interfaces and Options> The clear, easy-to-see backlit LCD makes both configuration and operation easy with simple messages about the printer's status and also the ability for quick configuration when needed. This printer contains both the Datamax® and Zebra® emulations. By using the keys on the operation panel, it is easy to simply switch between the two emulations to meet your program. Serial and USB interfaces are supplied as standard and optional Parallel interface, Ethernet and Wireless LAN boards can be fitted quickly and easily. An auto-cutter and peeler option is also available and can be easily installed. 3 COMPLIANCE STATEMENT FOR EUROPEAN USERS CE marking shows conformity to the following criteria and provisions: Low Voltage Directive (2006/95/EC)/EN60950-1 EMC Directive (2004/108/EC)/EN55022, EN55024, EN61000-3-2 & EN61000-3-3 This product has been tested under EN ISO 7779 and has an acoustic level output no higher than 55db(A).
