Star - Dot Matrix Printer - SP500
The SP500 combines renowned reliability and a multitude of high end features into a compact, value-driven solution. It is capable of fast output, printing 40 columns at 4 lines per second. This printer series has a bi-directional, logic seeking mechanism resulting in an exceptional throughput outpacing its nearest competition. Its compact footprint is further enhanced by its internal power supply - no "brick on a rope" for this printer. This efficiency is further shown in the highly effective cable management system allowing the interface and internal power supply cables to be neatly tucked away behind a protective cove.
The hinged cover of the SP500, with its integrated rain channel, protects the printer from liquid spills and other debris. Protection from the elements and the single color highlight feature of the SP500 series provide an excellent solution for food service and kitchen applications.
