Entry level desktop label printer
February 1st 2009 Toshiba TEC has added the
B-EV4 entry level desktop
label printer to its range of
thermal printers. Two
models are currently
available – the direct
thermal B-EV4D and the
thermal transfer B-EV4T.
Designed to provide
affordable printing with
high quality performance,
the series is suited to
warehouse environments
with low to medium volume
printing applications, such
as shelf labelling, product
marking and inventory
management, says the
company.
Easy to handle and safe to
use, the B-EV4 printer has a
wide top cover mechanism
which provides easy access
to the print head, paper and
sensor but, importantly, has
a cover damper to prevent
accidental closure thus
preventing user injury. The
printer cover is robust and
designed with a double wall
which protects the inner
casings from dust and
external damage. The unit
weighs just under 2.5 kg
and has a mini footprint of
7.8" x 10.2".
The B-EV4 has as standard
a connectivity line up of
serial parallel USB 2.0 ports
and internal Ethernet with
SNMP management tools.
With a 32 RISC chip it
delivers top speeds in terms
of label throughput and also
features an 8MB SDRAM
image buffer. Print speeds
are set at 4 ips at 300dpi
and 5 ips at 200dpi, which
allows printing jobs to be
processed quickly. More articles from Toshiba TEC Europe Retail Information Systems: |
