FTP-632MCL001/002/303/304

■ OVERVIEW

FTP-632MCL/FTP-622DCL Series is an ultra high speed line
thermal printer driven by 24 VDC, printing on 3-inch wide paper
(80 mm/85 mm).

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

This printer is suitable for a variety of applications, such as POS
terminals, ticket machines, coupon machines, label printers,
medical instruments, etc. A printer with a specially designed
cutter is also available.

FTP-632MCL001

■ HIGHLIGHTS

• Ultra high speed printing

It can print at 80 mm/s (640 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 94 g.

• Low power consumption

The peak current for head driving is approximately 2.9 A (at
80 mm/s printing speed, 50% printing ratio).

• 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.

• ESC/POS

The commands conform to ESC/POSTM.

• Auto Cutter

Printer with auto cutter (full cut/partial cut) is also available.

• UL Recognized
