TORRANCE, Calif. — Seiko Instruments USA Inc.'s Thermal Printer Division, a provider of thermal printer technology, announced a new small-form-factor, low-cost two-inch kiosk printer. The APU-G247 packs many of the features commonly found on larger kiosk printers, and frees mechanical design real estate, making it ideal for entry-level and mid-range self-service applications.
The APU-G247 kiosk printer supports two-inch-wide thermal printer paper and has a front-loading design that takes advantage of the Seiko Instruments EZOP clamshell-style paper replacement technology. The EZOP design allows users to quickly replace the paper roll with a simple drop-in process.
At 5.8 inches high, and 3.8 inches wide and deep, the APU-G247 is small enough to satisfy the most demanding self-service integration criteria. The 24-volt thermal printer offers serial and USB connectivity and can print receipts, tickets and labels at up to 5.9 inches per second. The print head and cutter are rated for 100 million pulses, over 100 kilometers of printed output and more than one million cuts.
