The printer uses direct thermal printing at 203 DPI resolution and can print at speeds up to 152 mm/s.
Maximum print width is 56 mm. It supports continuous paper and label paper, and is commonly used with direct thermal wristband media designed for patient ID.
This is a direct thermal printer, so it does not require ink ribbons — images are created by heat reacting with heat-sensitive media.
Standard connectivity options include USB. Other available interfaces are Serial, Parallel, Ethernet and WLAN (Wi‑Fi) depending on model/configuration.
Drivers are available for Windows, Linux and macOS. The printer is compatible with most label and wristband printing software that supports standard printer drivers and common barcode formats.
The printer supports a variety of 1D and 2D barcode formats and multiple barcode fonts, making it suitable for patient ID barcodes and QR codes.
Standard memory is 64 MB SDRAM and 4 MB FLASH. An 8 MB FLASH option is available for larger font or format storage needs.
Dimensions are approximately 221 mm (L) × 125 mm (W) × 169 mm (H) and the unit weighs about 1.1 kg.
Power input is 100–240 V AC with a 24 V DC, 2.5 A adapter supplied for the printer.
Yes. It’s designed for healthcare environments to print patient wristbands quickly and clearly, with built‑in sensors and support for common barcode formats used in hospitals.
The printer accepts direct thermal wristband rolls and label rolls up to the maximum print width of 56 mm. Specific roll core diameters and maximum roll outer diameter depend on the media variant—refer to the vendor/media spec sheet for supported roll dimensions.
Regularly clean the thermal printhead and platen roller with recommended thermal cleaning wipes to remove debris and adhesive residue. Check and clean media sensors periodically and avoid abrasive cleaning agents.
Direct thermal prints are durable for many short- to medium-term wristband applications, but they are less resistant to prolonged abrasion, heat and sunlight compared with thermal-transfer prints. For long-term outdoor or high-abrasion use, consider specially coated thermal wristbands or alternative printing methods.
The product is offered with air freight shipping. The printer itself has no internal lithium battery, but packing and accessory rules vary by carrier and country. Confirm carrier-specific requirements and provide accurate HS codes and documentation to avoid delays.
