Thank you very much for purchasing Citizen's compact direct thermal label & barcode printer Model CL-S521 that offers high performance printing at 6 inches per second on 4.1 inch media at very low cost.

❚❚❚ Main Features ❚❚❚

<High-speed, high-quality printing>

This printer can be used for high-speed high-quality printing thanks to its thermal-transfer system that uses a line thermal printhead together with its 32 bit RISC CPU and its 'history control IC'.

<Easy operation>

•It is easy to change the printer’s settings on the operation panel, thanks to its unique and simple VuePrint menu system.

•Its high-lift printhead and mechanism means that media can be loaded with ease and it is constructed for easy thermal printhead cleaning, etc.

•Media width adjustment, media thickness adjustment, and media sensor adjustment can all be made easily by the user using the colour-coded operator controls.

<Dual Programming Language>

This printer contains both the Datamax® and Zebra® emulations and will automatically detect the language using the Cross-EmulationTMfeature.

<Interface>

An industry standard RS232 serial port and USB1.1 port are standard equipment, for quick data transfer and printing.

<Optional interface>

Additional connectivity is available with an optional internally-housed IEEE1284 parallel port, an Ethernet interface and a wireless LAN print server.

<Optional auto-cutter / peeler unit>

Its auto-cutter and peeler unit are constructed so they can be replaced easily.

<Adjustable sensors>

The adjustable sensors that permit the adjustment of the positions of the media gap or the black mark detection sensor in the media width direction are standard equipment that can detect the position of special media.

<Installation>

The interface, power switch etc. are installed towards the back and the top cover opens and closes vertically so that the sides of the printer are not restricted.
