Introducing the PF8 Printers

The PF8 are lightweight, reliable, and easy-to-use printers. Both printers are designed to print a low volume of labels per day (less than 1000 labels per day). There are two models of the PF8 printer:

•The PF8d is a 203 dpi direct thermal printer.

•The PF8t is a direct thermal/thermal transfer printer that is available in 203 and 300 dpi models.

Both PF8 printers are provided with parallel, serial RS-232, and USB ports. As an option, both models can be fitted with a cutter attachment, or label stripper module. The PF8t can also be fitted with a compact flash card adapter.

The discharge of electrostatic energy accumulated on the human body, clothing, or other surfaces can damage or destroy the printhead or electronic components used in these printers. Avoid touching the electrical connectors while unpacking or setting up your printer.
