Label printer XD Q
for printing on both sides of a material

Highlights

  • Print resolution 300 dpi if printing as wide as 105.7 mm
    Print resolution 600 dpi if printing no more than 54.1 mm  wide using a DR4-M60 print roller
    Print heads designed for 300 dpi and such for 600 dpi are not interchangeable on the unit.
  • Heating can be assigned separately to each print head.
  • If printing only on the top of a material using print head 2, print head 1 is automatically lifted and the ribbon is stopped by an electromechanical brake.
  • Guiding materials in centered position results in precise print images in particular with slim continuous materials are in use. The width of a material is set with the help of a spindle.
  • Automated ribbon saving is provided on print head 1 when printing on the bottom of a material. The print head is lifted and the ribbon is stopped during material feed.
  • Continuous print images when cutting or perforating labels at no backfeed.
  • Optimized printing, so that multiple print jobs can be printed seamless and without loss of labels.
  • CSQ cutters and PSQ perforation cutters
  • A separator is part of the chassis. It separates continuous material reliably from a ribbon and improves the accuracy of feeding.
    Type of transport roller:
    Steel is a standard if printing on textile materials.
    Rubber is an option with shrink tubes.
    A transport roller can be pivoted for material changeover.
  • Find documentation on the Internet. DVDs are no longer part of delivery.

  1. Specifications are standards. Operations including small, slim, thick or stiff materials need testing, so do strongly adhesive labels.
  2. A ribbon should be at least as wide as the liner material.
 

Accessories / optional equipment
