  Barcode Label Printers | CL-S700 series | In-Depth
 





The CL-S700 is designed with Easy Access in mind from the very beginning.

Our Hi-Open™ case opens “vertically” meaning that the footprint of the printer does not increase when the cover is open. The printer can be placed between a wall and computer case, for example, and still the case can be opened for media loading.
 

 

Ribbon loading is equally quick and easy with the Hi‑Lift™ metal mechanism opening to a full 90° to allow for easy ribbon access.

Ribbons are simply wrapped around the printhead with no need to feed through a complex mechanism
 

 
 

The CL-S700 works with ribbons up to 450 metres long (1476 feet) either inside or outside wound for maximum flexibility and minimum downtime.

If you're in the courier or logistics market or an application where direct thermal printing is perfectly acceptable, then our CL‑S700DT direct thermal model is ideal.

Naturally, an industrial strength printer comes in a heavy duty metal enclosure to ensure reliable and uninterrupted operation.
 

 

The printer can hold a full-sized roll of media (8 inches or 200mm outside diameter) on a small core (1 inch or 25mm) for maximum operational up-time.

This also make media loading simple with unobstructed access to the media path.
 

 
 

Continuing the idea of simple, easy access the power switch is conveniently located at the front of the printer. Above is the large graphic LCD for clear indication of printer status and easy printer configuration. As well as indicating the printer's current status, like "Media Out" or "OnLine Ready", the LCD panel can be used to make minor adjustments and configurations to the printer, quickly and easily in a logical and simple-to-use menu system.

When you have finished changing the media, the top cover closes gently for both user safety and user courtesy.
 

 

Our ARCP™ ribbon system - Active Ribbon Control & Positioning - completely eliminates ribbon wrinkle and media slippage on small or specialist media, especially important for longer ribbons.

Standard connectivity on most models is by parallel, serial and USB interfaces and optional Ethernet and Wireless LAN cards can be installed, even by a user.  

Front Loading Internal Rewinder: For easy rewinding of either the liner in peel mode or printing of batches of labels, the front of CL‑S700R version of our printer drops down for the simplest rewinder operation ever seen!

Cross-Emulation™: Supports both Datamax® and Zebra® emulations. If the printer is in standard mode and Zebra ZPL-II® code is sent to the printer, the printer will display a message and offer to switch emulations automatically.

For high-resolution output, the CL‑S703 and CL‑S703R models features a 300 dpi printhead. 300 dpi printing is suitable for three main areas:

  • Compliance with EAN barcode standards used in the retail industry
     
  • Printing of small barcodes (due to space restrictions)
     
  • High-quality graphics and logos such as serial number rating plates, CE or WEEE logos, etc.
