6306 Line Matrix Printer
Ideal solution for High-Volume, Mission Critical Impact Printing.
The TallyGenicom 6300 Series accommodates the most demanding applications in the harshest
environments. With their rugged and efficient design, they provide the most reliable and economical
printing solution.
Auto-Gap
The 6306 and 6312 line printers are the first and only line printers to offer Auto-Gap which simplifies
operator set-up and printer use by setting the optimum print gap based on the form thickness. For forms
with varying thicknesses, the auto-gap feature detects ands sets a variable print gap to produce the
optimum print quality on all portions of form, from label to tip-on cards, and more.
Patented Smart Ribbon.
The patented SmartRibbon is available on the new 6306SRT models and on the 6312 and ensures a
uniformly high contrast over the ribbon’s life – the last form looks as good as the first. This long-life ribbon
cartridge significantly reduces user intervention and increases productivity.
Economical solutions for high-volume, mission critical impact printing.
