PEX-2000 Series Print Engine:

The 4-inch PEX-2000 Print Engines easily integrate into any label applicator for smooth daily operations, reducing integration effort and speeding up time-to-market.

The PEX-2000 is highly compatible with hardware and software for easy integration. It supports DB15 and DB25 interfaces and major printer brands’ GPIO emulations. The customisable printer language firmware supports major printer languages so template commands and print files can remain the same.

The PEX-2000 is reliable for 24/7 operations, compact to meet space constraints, and is easy to service. From its angle-adjustable peel-off module, advanced sensor design, durable TPH, to optional RFID and Ribbon Saver, the PEX-2000 provides precise functionality and future-proof technology. It delivers high imprint accuracy for labels with a minimum of 5mm length and printing deviation within ±0.4mm. It’s also compatible with the remote printer management tools, TSC Console and SOTI Connect.
