Technical Features & Benefits

Hammer Bank Benefits

Stored energy technology using new, robust hammer spring

• Offers inherent high reliability
  
  
• Generates high energy for multi-part forms
• Provides uniform dot density

New, high-efficiency coil uses 40% less power, returns flyback energy to power supply

• Produces less heat
• Yields higher reliability

Hammer drivers mounted on hammer bank to greatly reduce cabling needs

• Higher reliability
• Improved diagnostic capability

Modular hammers and coils are easily replaced in the field

• 
• Reduces downtime
• Lowers service costs

Forms Handling Benefits

Four-tractor system

• Allows high slew speeds
• Accurate forms tensioning
• Forms reversal capability
• Steel tractor pins in upper tractors for reduced wear, longer life

Straight-through paper path

• Excellent forms handling

High-speed, high-torque paper drive

• Greater throughput
• Accurate handling of heavy forms

Hinged, self-closing upper paper guide

• Easy forms loading

Independent forms thickness and forms loading settings

• 
• Correct platen position is remembered whenloading new box of forms

Constant platen gap location

• Reduces possibility of smudging

Infinitely variable forms thickness adjustment

• Permits optimum forms thickness setting

Smart Ribbon System Benefits

Provides a constant supply of ink to the print mechanism

• Exhibits a uniformly high contrast over the ribbon’s life. Other ribbons fade rapidly and in proportion to use

Intelligent Ribbon Software (IRS) examines data stream en route to the print mechanism

• Permits real-time control of ribbon to precisely match ink supply to ink demand

Ribbon fault detection

• Ensures that ribbon is correctly installed and free of jams

Weld detection for reinking ribbons prevents printing on ribbon weld

• Eliminates possibility of poor print quality as a result of printing directly on the fabric weld
• Increases life of the ribbon

Uses independently controlled motors for ribbon drive and peristaltic pump

• Allows optimization of print contrast for every text and graphics application

Yields very high ribbon life

• Supports unattended operation
• Less operator intervention
• Kinder to the environment
