Printer Overview

IPDS
enhancement emulations are available as optional upgrades. No
matter what emulation is installed, your printer is easy to use. The
message display and lights on the control panel communicate with
you directly and clearly. You can select every function on your
printer at the control panel, or you can send commands from the
host computer.
The printer combines the use of Flash, RAM, and nonvolatile RAM
for program execution. The Flash is used for all program, font, and
emulation storage. New fonts, emulations, or program updates can
be downloaded to Flash memory via the parallel or serial interface,
or through the PrintNet
print image storage, and execution variables. The non-volatile RAM
stores configuration, statistics, and internal parameters.
The printer model numbers indicate printing speed and physical
configuration.
•
Model numbers beginning with P50 indicate pedestal models.
Model numbers beginning with P52 indicate cabinet models.
The final two digits in the model number refer to the printer's
maximum speed in lines per minute: 05 for 500 lines per
minute, 10 for 1000 lpm, and 15 for 1500 lpm.
•
The P5x05B-12 models are 500 lpm models with 12 MIL (0.012
inch) tips on the print hammers instead of the normal 16 MIL
(0.016 inch). This allows the printing of higher resolution
graphics and barcodes.
•
The P52xx-SS models have the SureStak
option installed.
•
The P50xx-QA models are pedestal models with the Quick-
Access Cover installed.
