Toshiba B-SX5

Toshiba B-SX5


High Performance Printing

Printing is fast with superb clarity due to an innovative print head with 306 DPI. The units are powered by a fast 32-bit processor with 8 MB DRAM and 4 MB Flash memory for programs and large file storage.

Dual platen rollers prevent media slipping or skewing and assist accurate forward or back-feeding.

Reliability and Maintenance

The design is a field-proven heavy-duty steel cabinet with a robust inner mechanism to ensure reliability. Access to the printhead, platen, paper path and sensors is quick and easy with the wide opening mechanism and clam-head providing easy maintenance.

Upgrade to the Future

The B-SX5 is a proven and reliable investment being designed with the future in mind with optional interfaces including LAN Ethernet. All units support email, XML and FTP protocols for remote printing and standardized data exchange.

RFID is a major new development in barcode label printing and the B-SX5 are loaded with the latest technology including SPRiNT direct tag inlay coding.
