The ST Performance Series represents a new generation of intelligent barcode printers designed with the user and application in mind. “Because we had no preconceived mandates as to what the printer line had to be, we were able to produce a product with unique benefits that integrates seamlessly into the most widely used printer language, PCL5e,” explained William Bouverie, President and CEO. “Before designing the Performance Series we conducted extensive research. Our team reached out to customers and thermal printer users worldwide about their industrial, mid-range barcode printing requirements. We listened to their input, and incorporated the most important elements into our printer design. The result is a product that is easy to use, easy to integrate, produces unparalleled print quality and is built to perform in the harshest environments.”

The ST Performance Series Features

• PCL5e for plug-and-play integration
• Intuitive color graphic touchscreen
• 300dpi for rich graphics, barcodes and text
• Constant ribbon tension to prevent ribbon wrinkle
• Wide array of connectivity choices
• Field upgradable options
• RFID option

With PCL5e, an industry standard printer language, integration difficulties caused by proprietary languages become a thing of the past and PCL allows the printer to support 50 resident scalable fonts, a substantial advantage compared to other thermal printers.

In a conversation with Kevin Kennedy, Director, Engineering, he shared additional insight to the printer’s perceptive attributes. Watch the entire interview and learn more about why the first model in the new ST Performance Series is ready for virtually anything.
