1. INTRODUCTION

Thank you very much for purchasing the TEC B-442 Bar Code Printer. The attractive desktop printer delivers superior performance at an economical price. Both powerful and easy-to-use, the B-442 printer is your best choice among industrial direct thermal and thermal transfer label printers.

The B-442 offers both high-resolution thermal transfer and direct thermal printing at selectable speeds of 1.5 inches and 2 inches per second. It can accept a wide range of media, including roll feed, die-cut, and fan-fold labels, tags or tickets for both thermal transfer and direct thermal printing. All of the most frequently used bar code formats are resident in this printer’s memory and can be printed with human readable bar code interpretations. Character fonts and bar codes can be printed in any one of four directions. The B-442 provides a choice of five different alphanumeric fonts in variable sizes; by using font multiplication, an even greater range of sizes is possible. Smooth fonts can be downloaded from the user-friendly, Windows "Free Label Software".

In addition, the B-442 is capable of independently executing Basic programming functions, including arithmetic, logical operation, loop, flow-control and file management, among others. This programming capability provides the greatest efficiency in label printing. This printer also completes its own Self Test, insuring superior performance at all times. The status of printer and error messages may either be printed out or viewed on a monitor by means of an RS-232 connection.
