SQUIX 4.3 TD / 4.3 PTD
Direct thermal printers guiding materials aligned to the left

Designed for long life cycles
SQUIX 4.3 TD ‑ Basic unit providing a tear-off plate
Printed labels or continuous materials, wound on a roll or fanfold, can be torn off on a jagged plate. Cutting a material is another option, so is external rewinding.
SQUIX 4.3 PTD ‑ Peel-off unit providing an internal rewinder
Dispense adds to the features of a basic unit. Printed labels are peeled off their liner and can be removed by hand or by an applicator.
