The major difference in the CL408eeee and the CL412eeee printers is the
resolution of the head. The CL408eeee with its 203 dpi head provides
an economical labeling solution for most applications. The CL412eeee
provides a higher print resolution, 305 dpi, to give laser quality
printing. It is useful when higher resolution is needed for detailed
graphic images.

print-

Printer operation can be affected by the printer environment. The
location of the printer should be free from dust, humidity, and sud­den vibrations. To obtain optimum results from the printer, avoid
locations influenced by:

• Direct or bright sunlight since bright light will make the label sen­sor less responsive and may cause the label to be sensed incor­rectly.

• Warm temperatures which can cause electrical problems within
the printer.

Use only SATO thermal transfer ribbons which were formulated
expressly for use in all SATO printers. Use of other than approved
ribbons may result in unsatisfactory print quality and/or damage to
the print head and may void your warranty.
