Introduction
Thank you for purchasing a new Citizen CLP series label printer.
This manual is designed to help you quickly understand the basic operations of this
printer.
Design features
This printer is designed to accurately print bar codes and various character fonts on
media such as tags and labels at high speeds. Both direct thermal and thermal transfer
printing is possible.
• Excellent print quality at speed
This printer easily creates the crisp bar codes and clear fonts required for today's
vast range of labeling applications at a speed to match the performance of modern
time-critical installations.
• Simple control panel
Printing operations such as printer setup, print position and interface configuration
can be performed with the six keys on the control panel. Even an untrained operator
can easily operate this printer by following the instructions on the LCD control panel.
• Easy maintenance
The simple construction of the printer and unobstructed view of the paper path make
daily maintenance, paper and ribbon replacement, and troubleshooting quite easy
and fast.
• Interfacing to a computer
The printer is equipped with the RS-232C serial (max. 115.2Kbps) and parallel
interfaces as standard. Other interfaces such as USB, IEEE1284ECP, and Ethernet
are also available as options. Using standard applications or dedicated software, bar
codes and labels can easily be created and printed.
• Great versatility from many options
As well as the interface options, other accessories such as auto-cutter and peeler
with rewinder are available to meet a diverse range of applications.
