Extreme benefits of DED printer weigh up
June 1st 2006

Avery Weigh-Tronix has specified the Star Micronics TUP900 thermal kiosk printer from DED for a weighbridge application at a dock coal yard. An integral part of the kiosk, the TUP900 is being used to print receipts detailing the weight and load information of vehicles.

Positioned at vehicle cab height in a driver operated terminal, the TUP900 was primarily selected for the length of paper roll it is capable of carrying. With a 600m roll as standard, the TUP900 can print hundreds of receipts before the roll needs changing. The advantages of the TUP900 in this case were very easy to see - the fewer paper roll changes in extreme weather conditions the better.

Printing 150mm per second, the TUP900 features easy paper loading using an auto loading mechanism.
