Wide-Web Industrial Printers
The M10 e’s are designed to handle media widths of 11.8” and print widths of
10.5” in direct thermal or thermal transfer modes. A sophisticated system of sen-
sors and media guides assures proper media registration and simplifies paper
loading.
Thermal Transfer Wrinkle-Free Operation
M10 e printers utilize a revolutionary anti-wrinkle ribbon mechanism, which
assures trouble-free operation in most thermal transfer operations, increases
printer reliability, performance, ease of use, and greatly reduces down time and
user intervention especially in mission critical applications.
Print Technology Replacement and Connectivity
The M10 e finally brings benefits of thermal printing technology to markets and
applications historically dependent on inferior print technologies such as impact,
ink-jet, and laser. Thermal technology offers an array of benefits making the M10
e
an ideal candidate for applications involving print technology replacement. A large
selection of user configurable Plug-In Interface Modules (incl.10/100 Ethernet,
and wireless 802.11b Wi-Fi) simplifies connectivity.
