Portable thermal printer can now print removable or permanent self adhesive labels.


Able Systems Ap1300 series high speed mini printers can now be used to print removable and permanent self adhesive labels in addition to standard thermal paper labels. The use of new proprietary technology and mechanisms allows the new StickABLE printer to produce labels for an even wider range of applications.

Featuring a high speed, high quality fixed head thermal mechanism, the Ap1300 series already delivers very high quality text and graphics at 8 dots per mm, and is small enough to be held in the hand. It has a strong case design that eliminates hinge stress while still allowing for the insertion of a label or paper roll with just one hand.

Typical applications for the Ap1300 StickABLE labels include: warehouse shelf edge labels, automatic identification and other industrial applications, PDA printing, test and measurement equipment and medical patient and systems labels or indeed anywhere a custom permanent or removable label is required. Any length of label can be printed, long or short one after the other, further increasing flexibility.

There are several power options: re-chargeable cells, primary cells, mains supply, 12V supply and in-vehicle solutions with a 12V charger. A full set of Windows and Pocket PC drivers are available.

Individual character sets can be chosen by software selection, and customisation of character fonts by the user is also possible through the use of the Font Editor Utility software, available separately.

The unit comes with an RS-232 interface as standard, with optional Bluetooth (Ap1310BT) and IrDA (Ap1310IR) interfaces. Both offer full implementations of their respective standards with the IrDA supporting: IrPHY V1.0, IrLAP, IrLMP, IAS TinyTP and IrCOMM 9-wire. The interfaces operate up to 57,600 baud. The printer also includes a 20KB data buffer.

Dimensions are 65 x 95 x 128mm (HxWxL) and weighs 446g including a full label roll and battery. The Ap1300 series prints 384 dots per line at up to 60mm/second.
