Cutter, Light-Duty (Backing-Only)

A rotary-type mechanism to automatically cut material with a maximum thickness of .005" (.127 mm) into minimum lengths of 1.25 inches (31.8 mm). An adjustable tray to collect up to 200 cut labels and tags is also available.

Cutter, Standard Duty

A rotary-type mechanism to automatically cut material with a maximum thickness of .010" (.254 mm) into minimum lengths of 1.25 inches (31.8 mm). An adjustable tray to collect up to 200 cut labels and tags is also available.

DMXNet

The DMXNet Print Server Card is an internal Network Interface Controller (NIC) that enables the printer to provide EthernetÒ connectivity. Features include:

• Automatic selection of 10Base2 (Thinnet) or 100BaseT Fast Ethernet connection.
• Integral HTTP Server to allow monitoring and management from a standard Web browser program.
• Peer-to-Peer (serverless) discovery and printing from Windows 95/98/ME/XP or Windows NT/2000 workstations without a Novell file server present.
• FTP printing to allow printing directly from a Web browser or other FTP client.
• Dynamic Domain Name Service (DDNS).
• Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP).
• Novell "YES" certified.
• Novell NetWare PSERVER on both bindery based and Novell Directory Services (NDS).
• LPR/LPD over TCP/IP for UNIX platforms and Microsoft Windows.
• Raw sockets support over selectable TCP/IP port with filters for selected UNIX environment.
• IP and IPX SNMP support of MIB-2, proprietary NIC MIB and public and proprietary (private) Printer MIB.
• SNMP traps to alert administrators of printer errors (paper/ribbon out, head up, etc).
• E-mail notification of printer errors to specified addresses.
• Universal Plug and Play (UPnP).
• FTP download allows users to upgrade the interface's Flash memory.

External Keyboard (specify voltage/country requirement when ordering)

A portable keyboard/display terminal, the DMX Passport, for stand-alone printing.

External Media Rewinder (specify voltage requirement when ordering)

A precision-crafted, bi-directional rewinding mechanism with device-dependant features:

• DMXREW1 - accommodates 1 to 4-inch (25 to 101 mm) diameter cores; accepts a maximum label width of 4.5 inches (114 mm); and, rewinds to a 8-inch (203 mm) maximum outer diameter at 10 inches per second.
• DMXREW2 - accommodates 3-inch (76 mm) diameter cores; accepts a maximum label width of 9.5 inches (241 mm); and, rewinds to a 12-inch (304 mm) maximum outer diameter at 30 inches per second.

Font Expansion Card (cannot be used with the I/O Expansion card)

A slide-in circuit card assembly with 8MB Flash memory expansion for International Language Printing Capability (ILPC) and/or additional fonts and graphics. ILPC consists of one of the following:

• CG-Times (Western European) Scalable font
• Kanji Gothic B Scalable font
• Simplified Chinese GB Scalable font
• Korean Hangul Scalable font

ILPC - CG Times Firmware

The firmware can be upgraded to include the Datamax ILPC (International Language Printing Capability) CG Timesä font. This supports the Datamax Enhanced Language Code Pages.

Internal Rewinder

An internal mechanism to wind six-inch outer diameter rolls of printed labels, or the label backing material for the Peel and Present option.

I/O Expansion Card (specify features at time of order)

The standard features of this slide-in circuit card assembly include:

• General purpose (GPIO) interface for external printer and device control.
• Time and date calendar (Real Time Clock) function for label time-stamping.

An optional feature also offers:
• 8MB Flash memory expansion for graphics and/or additional fonts including International Language Printing Capability (ILPC).

Peel and Present Mechanism (requires the Internal Rewind option)

An output control device that automatically separates printed labels from the backing material and allows subsequent printing to occur only after the removal of a previously printed label. Minimum label length is 1.5 inches (38 mm).

Present Sensor

An output control device that allows subsequent printing to occur only after the removal of a previously printed label.

RS-422 Serial Interface**

Single-drop interface hardware to support greater distances from the host at communication rates of up to 38,400 baud.

Thermal Transfer (specify configuration at time of order)

A printing method that uses ribbon to produce exceptional image clarity, as compared to most direct thermal media types. This option must be specified for use with either "coated side in" ribbon or "coated side out" ribbon.

Twinax/Coax Interface

A slide-in circuit card assembly that provides connectivity to AS/400 and System/3X Twinax host system or 3270-type host system. Cable included.

USB Port

A slide-in circuit card that provides the printer with a Universal Serial Bus, Version 1.1, for Windows printing environments only.
