Microplex LogiJet T8 Thermal Printer
 8 Inch Label Printing
Microplex's LogiJet T8 provides narrow web multi-mode thermal LaserJet compatible label printing and like its smaller cousins, the LogiJet T4 four inch and LogiJet T6 six inch label printers, the LogiJet T8 prints full speed directly from Microsoft Windows®, SAP/R3®, Oracle®, JD Edwards®, Peoplesoft®, Unix® and other applications without additional software.
Microplex's 200 Mhz RISC processor provides Intelligent barcode generation within the LogiJet T8 printer, ripping (Raster Image Processing) printable barcodes, including generating start/stop commands with associated check sum thereby minimizing data traffic on your network.
LogiJet T8 Direct thermal printing permits the use of heat activated thermal papers and films but requires no ribbon. Print color is limited to black. Direct thermal printing labels is normally for items stored away from heat, sunlight, and the label shelf life is less than 1 year. Your primary benefit is an overall lower cost since a ribbon is not required.
So which narrow web mode do you really need? Direct Thermal or Thermal Transfer printing?
- Will you ever need to print labels in colors other than black?
- Do labels need to be scanned or have a shelf-life of over 1 year?
- Are you printing high density bar codes (i.e. limited space)?
- These labels will be subjected to heat or sunlight?
- Printing on a variety of different substrates (i.e. papers, films and foils)?
If you answer yes to any of these questions you need to use Thermal Transfer printing.
