Featuring innovative designs guided by

customer input, PC Series printers are

optimized for healthcare, retail and hospitality

markets – as well as light-duty manufacturing,

warehousing and general ofﬁce duties.

Designed for user-friendliness and ﬂexibility,

compact PC Series desktop printers provide an

intuitive label printing solution. Available in two-

inch wide direct thermal (PC23d), four-inch wide

direct thermal (PC43d) or four-inch wide thermal

transfer (PC43t) models, PC Series printers are

perfect for space-constrained settings. Their

low cost and fast operation make them the

smart choice for light-duty labeling applications

where users need reliable, easy-to-use printers.

PC Series printers were designed for quick set-up and trouble-free use. With a variety

of placement options including wall-mounted and battery-powered, these printers

adapt to their environment and ﬁt right in. Common printer tasks are simple and

training needs are reduced, because PC Series printers come with either a universal

icon interface or color LCD in 10 languages. It’s even possible to conﬁgure and

update your printer on the spot, using a USB thumbdrive – no computer necessary.

The PC43t thermal transfer printer supports both 12.7 mm (0.5 in)

and 25.4 mm (1 in) ribbon cores. By accommodating larger ribbon

lengths of up to 300 m (984 ft), the need for frequent media supply

replenishment is reduced, eliminating downtime and hassle.

Considering the switch to the PC Series from another printer brand? With

comprehensive command language support – including ZSim2, our fast, friendly and

complete ZPL-II emulation – upgrading to the PC Series has never been simpler.
