About the Leitz Icon Printer
The Leitz Icon printer is the heart of your Icon Smart Labeling System. Using the printer, you can print a wide variety of
labels, name and visitor badges, lever arch file labels, and more. Because the printer can cut labels to size, you can use a
single label cartridge to print many different types of labels, minimizing the need to switch cartridges. When you do need to
change cartridges, you have a choice of paper or plastic self-adhesive labels, as well as non-adhesive card stock. All label
types are available in multiple widths to meet a variety of applications.
The printer connects to your computer wirelessly or using the included USB cable.
