Media and Supplies
The CL408/412 comes from the factory set up to operate with high quality
TechnoTherm thermal transfer media and ribbons. Sample premium quality
SATO Standard wax and Premier II wax/resin ribbons are shipped with the
printer.
Other media and supplies may or may not give acceptable results in the
CL408/412. It is likely that you will have to experiment with the heat and
speed settings to obtain quality printing. Instructions for adjusting the heat
and speed for optimum print quality can be found in the Operator and Tech-
nical Reference Manual in Section 3.
Options
Plug-In Interface
The CL408/412 uses Plug-In Interface cards for maximum flexability. Cur-
rently available interfaces are Parallel, Serial RS232, Universal Serial Bus
(USB) and 10BaseT Ethernet.
Label Dispenser
The CL408/412 Label Dispense Option is an internal mechanism that pro-
vides the ability to print labels in the “demand” mode. When it is installed,
the printer dispenses one label at a time, peeling the backing from the label.
The excess label backing is taken up on an internal rewind spindle.
Label Cutter
The CL408/412 Cutter Option is an internally mounted mechanism that will
cut labels or tags as they exit from the printer.
PCMCIA Memory Expansion
The Memory Expansion option provides the connectors and interface for
two PCMCIA Memory Cards. Each PCMCIA card slot will accept SRAM
memory cards up to 2MB in size.
Calendar Option
The Calendar Option allows the date and time to be maintained in the local
printer where it can be recalled for label printing. The Calendar Option is
Y2K compliant and supports both standard and Julian dating.
