I-Class Features

 

FEATURE FUNCTION BENEFIT
Die-cast aluminum frame Precision die-cast aluminum frame designed for manufacturability. Durable, light weight design.
Supplies loading diagram embossed into the frame Makes loading intuitive. No operator’s manual required. No diagram of the paper path to lose.
Color coded component cues Components that can be touched, moved or adjusted are green and easily recognizable. Reduces training time. More intuitive. Novice users are less fearful of printer operations.
Unique collapsible ribbon hub Designed for simple loading and unloading of ribbons. No cores to lose, time to load and unload ribbon reduced.
Front 5 button 2 line, 20 character LCD display Configure the printer and change how the printer operates. All configurations take place via the intuitive front menu. No complicated dipswitches.
Wide access to the printhead Printhead mechanism is hinged to provide wide-open access. Easier to load ribbon and media, easier to clean printhead for longer life.
Flash memory DPL and additional font capability can be upgraded or enhanced without the need for modifications to the printer or electronics. Easier to remain current. Updates can be made to the printer without the need for replacing EPROMS.
Windows printer driver Windows applications have the ability to use the I-CLASS as a Windows printer. End-users can choose which application software to use with the I-CLASS.
DPL Utilizes the Datamax Programming Language. Many existing applications support DPL.
Field installable options Cutter and sensor simply plug into the front of the printer. Memory and connectivity options slide into the card cage located in the back. Not necessary to "disassemble" the printer just to add options.
Serial and parallel communications Industry standard RS-232C and Centronics Parallel ports included for host communication. Off-the-shelf communications cables can be used to provide printer/host connection.
Dual locking printhead Printhead latch locks with stainless steel pins on either side of the printhead. Allows for even printhead pressure across the width of the head.
Clean electronics side Designed for quality — no belts to wear out, no springs and cables crossing each other. Printer is designed for reliability and serviceability throughout.
Auto-resetting board fuses Fuses protect the printer from surges then reset themselves. No fuses to replace while maintaining the integrity of the electronics.
Split ribbon supply hub Ribbon supply hub is split, allowing the proper back tension for all sizes of ribbons. Provides even tension to give smooth, wrinkle free, ribbon operation and prevent ribbon breakage.
Improved fanfold capability Printhead mechanism is designed to easily accept fanfold media. Fanfold media feeds through back of printer, works right every time.
1.5" and 3" media cores Revolving media hubs available in 1.5" and 3" sizes. Worldwide focus works with all major sizes of media rolls.
