FTP-624MCL001/002/FTP-624DCL/DSL

■ OVERVIEW

FTP-624MCL/FTP-624DCL Series is a high speed line thermal
printer driven by battery, printing on 2-inch wide paper (58 mm/
60 mm).

This printer is compact and lightweight, and the design allows
easy head maintenance, head cleaning and head
replacement.

This printer is suitable for a variety of applications, such as
hand held terminals, POS terminals, ticket machines, coupon
machines, label printers, etc.

■ HIGHLIGHTS

• High speed printing

It can print at 60 mm/s (480 dotlines/s) maximum by using
Fujitsu Components' unique head drive control.

• Compact and lightweight

This printer has a low profile of only 20 mm, and a light
weight of approximately 80 g.

• Low power consumption

The peak current for head drive is only 2.6 A (8.5 VDC, 64
dots on)

• Easy head access

It is designed for easy head cleaning and head replace­ment.

• Paper auto loading function

Thermal paper can be loaded without head-up lever
operation.

• UL recognized

File No. E171434
