Direct thermal or Thermal Transfer label printer for high throughput
Top performance for your desktop: the Metapace L-42DT is a label printer with outstanding features for flexible usage. Its features are hard to find in comparable high-end printer versions, and the combination of its price and performance are equally impressive. Print either direct thermal or thermal transfer labels with a width between 20 and 110 mm extremely fast at up to 178 mm per second. According to the needs you print at either 203 or an optional 300 dpi (8 or 12 dots/mm, respectively).

The scope of delivery impresses from the very moment you open the box: simply unpack and start, because everything you need to begin immediately is included standard. You even receive practical label configuration software and a Seagull Bartender driver. Optionally receive the L-42DT also with an integrated peeler or cutter. With its compact housing the L-42DT easily finds space anywhere it is needed. It is an entire 20% smaller than common 300 m thermal transfer printers and thus comparably more flexible in usage.

Integration into any existing hardware and software environment is also a breeze. The L-42DT is compatible with most common printer languages, such as EPL, EPLII, ZPL, ZPLII, etc. Additionally, you manage the label printer using one of the following operating systems: Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 2012 Server, Linux and Mac OS X. Even the standard model of the L-42DT features a multi-interface with USB, RS232 and parallel interface, so that connection is as simple as possible. For extended functions, such as the integration into existing network applications, you optionally receive a version with an Ethernet port, as well as Wi-Fi for easy wireless connection. Also integrated standard are 128 MB Flash memory and 64 MB RAM.

Replace all consumables quickly and easily. The lid of the L-42D is easy to open up, then insert the label roll and close the lid again. Pressure on the feed button does the rest, so that tedious threading, etc. is not necessary. The maximum roll diameter of 130 mm is so generous that you maximize uptime through uninterrupted long-term use. The L-42D has automatic media detection and processes many different materials, such as continuous paper, stacked media, rolls with Gap and Black Mark, and much more.

Users enjoy the intuitive handling of the L-42DT. Numerous media sensors and the particularly easy media change simplify daily contact with the printer. When choosing the media to be printed you benefit from a wide variety. Whether for pre-fabricated labels, tickets, endless labels or fanfold paper – the L-42DT prints it all quickly and reliably. A two-year warranty secures your investment long-term.
