Main Features

High-speed, high-quality printing

This printer adopts both a direct-thermal and thermal-transfer printing system with the line thermal head and its unique control IC enables high-speed and high-quality printing.

Precision printing for additional value: 400dpi

New technologies such as the newly-developed 400dpi head in the CLP-7401, unique control IC and optimized driving technology for high-resolution printing are all available on Citizen label printers creating labels that are crisp, clear, easy-to-read and scan. Also, thanks to the additional front (label) sensors, an amazingly high level of accuracy can be achieved; small sized labels, miniature bar codes and small fonts are produced on demand and in the correct position leading to a reduction in cost, lead time and stock holding.

Powerful control language

A powerful yet simple to use control language is standard to all of Citizen’s label printers allowing easy design of labels and bar codes. Alternatively, Citizen provides printer drivers for popular operating systems such as Windows™.

Easy operation

Thanks to the clam-shell mechanism, labels, media and ribbons are loaded easily and maintenance such as head cleaning is carried out smoothly.

Parallel and serial ports as the standard

The parallel port (Centronics) in addition to the serial port is provided as the standard to enable high-speed data transmitting and industry compatible connectivity.

Adjustable media sensor

The moveable media detection sensor, standard on the CLP-7001 and CLP-7401 allows irregularly cut labels and tags to be used with ease. The sensors can also detect black registration marks that are not at the edge of the media.
