Printer specifications

**

User should test to the application. Print performance on small labels or a part

that is below the minimum label dimension spec. is dependent on multiple

factors, including print speed, qty in print run, heat setting and the size/layout of

the printed elements.

*** Use narrow print roller with narrow media, but to avoid head damage, ALWAYS be

sure roller is wider than total media width, and ribbon is wider than the roller width.
