PD43 & PD43c

Light Industrial Thermal Printer

The PD43 and smaller PD43c family of light industrial thermal printers

incorporate the latest printing innovations into a compact and affordable
package. Ideal for tight spaces, shallow countertops, and pull-out
cabinets, the PD series was designed to deliver no-compromise printing
performance in the smallest possible footprint.

Suited for the distribution center and warehouse as well as airline
passenger service, the PD43 upholds the long tradition of reliable
performance of the PD series. An all-metal chassis, strong castaluminum
print mechanism, and tool-free printhead and roller replacement help
minimize downtime and maintenance needs. With a variety of door options,
the PD43 can support a wide range of media – including ink-in and ink-out
ribbons with half-inch or one-inch core sizes – enabling maximum time
between media resupply. Fast time-to-label and print speeds of up to 200
mm/s (8 ips) ensure that the PD43 can scale with the changing needs of
dynamic operations.

The PD43 takes industrial printing to a new level of simplicity, with a color

graphic display that makes it easier to set up, configure and fine-tune
settings without the need for a host computer. In fact, with Smart Printing
capabilities, the PD43 can run apps right inside the printer – eliminating
the need for a connected PC entirely.

Considering the switch to PD series from another printer brand? With
comprehensive command language support – including ZSim2, our fast,
friendly and complete ZPL II® emulation – upgrading to PD series has never
been simpler.

Combining the latest printing innovations

in a compact but rugged package, the

PD43 is ideal for tight spaces, shallow

countertops and pull-out cabinets.

Add a service plan from Honeywell Repair
Services and ensure business continuity,
workflow performance and protection of your
technology investments – now available in
over 70 countries with global pricing and global
standards of quality.
