Maxatec Launches TSC Duo of 2" Barcode Printers

The Company Adds two new two-inch Printers to its Range of Printing Solutions.

ALTRINCHAM, England, November 25 - Today Maxatec announces the availability of two new thermal barcode
Printers ( www.maxatec-europe.com/content/pages/products/barcode/ )
for desktop label printing, the TDP-225 and TDP-225W, which are manufactured
by TSC Auto ID Technology Co. Ltd. These low cost, compact printers offer an
ideal solution for a wide range of applications including barcode printing
for retailers and wristband printing for patient ID and entertainment
ticketing.

The two-inch direct thermal label printers are specially designed for
compact areas, but at the same time, are packed with features. They are the
first low cost compact two-inch desktop printers to offer an optional LCD
display to its customers. The LCD is used to present important information
about print job status which brings a new level of ease of use to its
customers. They also provide the capability to continue to print even if the
computer network fails. It simply calls up a stored wristband/barcode
printing program from within the printer allowing patient or product
information to be entered via a PC keyboard, and it then continues to print
the relevant label.

Andrea Percival, managing director of Maxatec said: "These are really
neat barcode printers and we are very pleased to add them to our extensive
range of printing solutions. There are very few low cost two-inch desktop
printers around and I believe that these will be well received in the market
place. However, it's not all about cost, it is also important that they are
reliable and durable if we are to meet our customers' demands effectively and
these two new products fit that criteria."

The TDP-225 and TDP-225W user-friendly clamshell design offers features
including inexpensive internal Ethernet adapters for easy integration into
network systems, and optional keyboards for printing labels/wristbands in
standalone or down-time situations. They are designed to fit into areas other
barcode printers cannot, and integrate easily into a wide range of
applications. The TDP-225 features large 5'' OD centre biased media capacity
and fast 5 inches per second print speed. They both have a 200 MHz processor,
standard memory of 4MB FLASH, 8 MB SDRAM and a slot for a MicroSD memory
expansion that increases FLASH storage up to 4 GB and support standard
industry emulations including Eltron(R) and Zebra(R).

In addition the TDP-225W printer supports full 6.5" OD rolls of
wristbands right out of the box. It has an easy-load spring loaded centre
biased wristband holder, that supports a one inch core that is common to full
6.5" OD rolls sold by major wristband manufacturers.
