Print Technology
The P
AN
T
HER
™
LS8E prints labels using thermal transfer printing technology. The
print head melts ink contained on a thin web of ribbon material allowing the ink to
transfer to the label material. The print head operates at a resolution of 203 dots
per inch (dpi).
Smart Label Cassette
P1
™
label cassettes are automatically detected by the P
AN
T
HER
™
LS8E printer
upon insertion. The LS8E printer automatically adjusts its settings according to the
label cassette that is installed. This process saves you the time and effort normally
required to begin printing. With the LS8E, simply install the label cassette and lock
the print head latch. Now you are ready to begin printing.
P1
™
label cassettes
have an embedded memory device designed to improve your labeling productivity.
The device maintains an accurate count of the remaining labels in the cassette.
The device also recalls the last label design used. When you take a label cassette
out of the printer, your last label design goes with the cassette. This is very useful
for sharing files between more than one user or printer.
Label Cutter
The P
AN
T
HER
™
LS8E has a manually operated cutter blade. Press and release
the cutter button in order to cut your label. The cutter button has two possible
settings:
Full Cut and Partial Cut .
Full Cut is used to cut entirely across a label and its liner. This is the familiar
cutting style used on other hand-held printers. Partial Cut is used to leave a very
small area of the label liner still attached even after cutting. This is an innovative
adaptation to label cutting that allows you to avoid the frustration of searching for
the correct label within a disorganized pile or having to use scissors. After using
the partial cut setting, you will take a strand of labels to a job and then separate
them as needed. In this way, your labels remain in the order that they were
printed.
The Cut Pause feature allows you to cut between labels during a print job. When
Cut Pause is turned on, the printer will stop printing and allow you to cut the label.
After cutting, the printer will resume printing automatically. The Cut Pause feature
is turned on or off within the Setup menu.
Carrying Case
The P
AN
T
HER
™
LS8E has a custom protective carrying case constructed of
durable plastic material. The case provides a convenient method of transporting
the printer, label cassettes, and accessories to and from a job site.
PC KIT
The PC KIT includes a CD-ROM with PanTherLink
™
software and a USB cable.
The PC KIT is used to communicate between a computer and the P
AN
T
HER
™
LS8E printer. This provides the ability to import data, upgrade the printer operating
system, and print labels from Panduit Easy-Mark Labeling Software.
