INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing a Citizen CL-series label printer offering high performance printing at up to 10 inches per second on media up to 4.65 inches wide.

❚❚❚ Main Features ❚❚❚

The printer is designed for all day-to-day operations to be accessible from the front of the printer so there is no need to move items near to the printer for access for media loading.

<Hi-OpenTM printer case>

The main printer’s case lifts directly upwards meaning that no space is needed on either side of the printer. The power switch is located in a recessed panel at the front of the printer so it can be easily accessed without moving the printer.

The Hi-LiftTM metal print head mechanism opens so that it is completely clear of the media path so that the paper and ribbons can be loaded without any part of the printer in the way.

The clear, easy-to-see backlit LCD makes both configuration and operation easy with simple messages about the printer’s status and also the ability for quick configuration when needed.

The printer features an adjustable media sensor which allows the customer to use any type of media. The media (label) rolls can be inside or outside would. Similarly, the ink ribbon can be wound either way: ‘ink in’ or ‘in out’.

The patented ARCPTM function - Active Ribbon Control and Positioning - maintains even ribbon tension from beginning to end of a ribbon. This eliminates ribbon wrinkle and improves print positioning, especially for small labels. Smudging caused by ribbon slippage is also removed.

This printer contains both the Datamax® and Zebra® emulations. By using the keys on the operation panel, it is easy to simply switch between the two emulations to meet your program.

Parallel, Serial and USB interfaces are supplied as standard and optional Ethernet and Wireless LAN boards can be fitted quickly and easily. An auto-cutter and peeler option is also available and can be easily installed.

<Easy Rewinder operation> (CL-S700R only)

The internal rewinder is easily accessed from the front of the printer and it can be used for winding liner or printed batches of labels.
