Up to 14 inches per second for fast batch printing. The only 4” industrial printer with print speeds of 14 ips at 305 dpi.
Micro label print mode
Higher tolerance (+/-0.7 mm) for increased print image accuracy when using small label sizes (<53 mm length).
60° wide print head opening with pure line platen roller
Best-in-class head opening of 60° allows easier access to load media and perform routine maintenance. This Pure Line wear indicator on the platen roller provides a visual gauge as to when the platen needs to be replaced.
10-inch OD media supply and 600 m ribbon
More media per roll and longer ribbon lengths mean less downtime replenishing supplies.
HF or UHF RFID modules
SATO RFID Series printers can simultaneously print text and barcodes on UHF, HF and NFC tags or labels while encoding data into their embedded chips.
SATO Application Enabled Printing (AEP)
SATO’s Application Enabled Printing (AEP) platform is powerful on-board intelligence that enables customization of the printer operation to significantly simplify labeling operations and reduce business costs.
