nism.
The FTP-628 MCL series can be used for a variety of
applications, such as portable terminals, POS, ticket issuing
terminals, label printers, banking terminals, and measurement
and medical equipment.
■ HIGHLIGHTS
• Ultra compact
Height 15.5 mm, width 69.9 mm, depth 35.7 mm
• High speed printing
It can print at 60 mm/s (480 dotlines/s) maximum by using
Fujitsu's unique head drive control.
DESIGN
• High resolution printing / Kanji supported
8 dots/mm of resolution printing is possible.
• Easy paper setting
Our unique platen release mechanism allows a
wide paper route even if the printer is ultra-compact, so
paper can be easily inserted. Auto loading is also available
on the MCL001 and MCL003 models.
• Two types of paper routes
Front and bottom paper feed.
• Easy mounting
Head, motor, sensor and other component wiring are unified
to one flexible cable, and the mechanism can be secured by
one hook and two screws at two locations, making mounting
easy.
