Description of EasyCoder PD41
The EasyCoder PD41 printer is a dependable and versatile
printer suitable for medium-duty applications in manufacturing,
transportation and warehouse environments. It has all-metal
chassis and covers, proven printing mechanics and powerful
electronics providing sturdiness, performance and reliability.
The EasyCoder PD41 can print demanding crisp variable-data
labels continuously at 150 millimeters per second (mm/s) or 6
inches per second (ips). It takes industry standard 213mm (8.35
in) label rolls and 450 meters (18000 inches) of ribbon. The
printer accepts a wide range of paper types with different
thicknesses, as well as both ink-in and ink-out ribbon.
The EasyCoder PD41 offers versatile connectivity through serial
and USB interfaces. It is also equipped with Parallel IEEE 1284
and / or EasyLan Ethernet interfaces depending on the chosen
configuration.
The EasyCoder PD41 supports the unique and flexible Intermec
Fingerprint language, which allows the user or third-party
developer to create custom-made application programs and label
formats in a BASIC-like environment.
The printer is also designed to work with the Intermec Direct
Protocol programming language (a slave protocol, subset of
Fingerprint), the Intermec InterDriver and Intermec LabelShop.
The InterDriver allows you to print labels from standard MS
Windows applications, such as Microsoft Office. Intermec
LabelShop is a series of label-design programs that work under
MS Windows.
Other features, such as a cutter and an internal rewinder, are
available as option kits.
