Finishers
Cutter
Use the cutter option to cut continuous media into individual labels ready
for use. This 3400 option works best for individual random lengths or
short batches of different label lengths.
Batch Takeup
This device automatically spools labels as they are printed. This
attachment is limited to small batches with maximum outer diameter
(OD) of 12.7 centimeters (5 inches).
Self-Strip Printing
Use self-strip printing in applications where you want to apply labels to a
surface immediately. After printing a label, the printer prints out the label
with the backing removed. This option must be ordered when you order
your printer.
Kanji/Katakana
This option allows the printer to print Japanese characters in two Kanji
fonts and three Katakana fonts. This option also provides increased storage
capacity.
Memory Expansion
You can install a flash SIMM module into the SIMM socket on the main
PCB to hold more fonts or bitmap graphics. You can also install a DRAM
SIMM to increase the image buffering capabilities of the printer. You can
purchase either module in 8 or 16 MB sizes only.
