The EasyCoder® PX Series printers
are rugged, metal, high-performance
printers designed to excel in demanding
environments and support round-the­clock operations. The open, modular
design ensures the printers are easy to
adapt, maintain and service. The PX Series
includes the PX4i and PX6i, each featuring
a maximum print width of 4 or 6 inches
respectively.

Designed for easy integration into
manufacturing environments, the PX
series printers can be mounted in virtually
any position. The versatile form factor
facilitates the addition of add-ons such as
an automatic label applicator.

The EasyCoder PX series printers can
operate as stand alone devices executing
user-defined programs thereby eliminating
the need for a PC. With up to seven wired
and wireless connectivity interfaces,
these printers can operate production line
machinery, including scanners, scales, other
printers and conveyor as well as access
information directly from the network host.

Fully programmable and able to change
with the application, the PX Series printers

provide additional functionality and
continued investment protection. They
are not restricted by printer command
languages and can communicate with and
replace competitive and older Intermec
printers without any changes to host
programming or label format design.

The PX series printers print instantly from
first to last label at up to 12 inches per
second. Both versions are available with
203 or 300-dpi resolution print heads.
The PX4i also oers 400-dpi resolution
without any loss of speed. This is ideal
for on demand and compliance labeling
applications with variable data requiring
immediate results.

The PX series printers are the first bar
code label printer to integrate Intermec’s
Readiness Indicator (IRI) light. Part of the
Intermec SmartSystem™, this light provides
a visual cue to the operating state of the
printer. The EasyCoder PX series printers
communicates with the SmartSystem
Console which displays status, provides
access to configuration, eases installation
of new printers, and assists in identifying
printer consumables that require
replenishment.
