SATO Industrial Thermal Printer
CL408NX | CL412NX | CL424NX
With the new CL4NX, your problems are solved! Only the CL4NX will address the typical thermal printer issues you experience today through its many user friendly features and rugged design. Built with integrity, and designed with the operator in mind, the CL4NX surpasses the standard of today's printing technology.
User-Friendly Operation
Blue LED Indicator – Normal operation has the LED illuminated in blue and will change to red should an error in the operation be detected, making it clearly visible to any operator the printer's status and when attention is required.
3.5" Full Color LCD – Clear and crisp images provide quality and real time messaging on the printer's status. The LCD screen is large enough for the operator to observe error messages and select video guidance. 30 languages can be displayed and switching between screen settings is simple.
Intuitive Key Design – Universal icons for easy to understand key operation. Two soft keys display information relevant to onscreen content/operation making navigation and selection easier than ever before.
Durable Design
Metal Housing – Built strong to withstand the demands of industrial printing applications and environments.
Ribbon Take Up – Newly designed ribbon system supports the use of ribbon lengths up to 1968 feet (600m) and significantly improves the take up of spent ribbon in thermal transfer printing applications.
Tool-Less Replacement of Parts – Offers quick replacement of both the print head and platen roller without the need for tools, reducing maintenance and operational downtime.
Easy Setup and Maintenance
60-Degree Wide Print Head Opening – Best in class head opening of 60 degrees will allow easier access and faster maintenance. This translates into reduced down time and easy access to media sensor and other components.
Easy Setup – User friendly icon & multi-national languages are supported and shown on a Full Color Display. Operation settings can be secured using the password protection feature and with its easily accessible Power-On button, operation response actions and setups can be performed from the front panel LCD of the printer.
