PLQ-30
DATASHEET
A quiet, fast and power-efficient passbook printer with a low
TCO, ideal for financial and government institutions.
Customers and staff alike will appreciate the PLQ-30's unobtrusive noise levels,
which are as low as 55dBA. It’s efficient, too – the print speed enhancer enables
fast printing of bit image data under Windows environments to help cut queues.
Low total cost of ownership
Delivering substantial cost and energy savings, the PLQ-30 has a very low
standby power consumption of 4.5W. Further reducing TCO, it can print around
10 million characters in draft mode between ribbon changes.
Flexible
It offers excellent passbook handling and data processing flexibility, thanks to its
128kb memory and capacity for passbooks up to 2.6mm thick.
Easy installation
Simple to install, the PLQ-30 features a choice of emulations plus parallel, serial
and USB interfaces as standard for an easy fit into most IT environments.
Ultra-high-speed draft mode
High speed print speeds of 585 cps.
