EasyCoder 501 SA
The EasyCoder 501 SA (Stand-Alone) printer is intended for applications, where the
printer must be able to operate without being connected to a computer. The operator
can enter variable information into preprogrammed label layouts and control the
printing from the printer's own keyboard. Thus, this printer is fitted with special
firmware in its configuration EPROM's and an expanded RAM memory. The printer
can be temporarily or permanently connected to a PC for up- or downloading of label
texts and formats. The printer is available with either 8 dots/mm or 11.81 dots/mm
printhead density. Externally, this model is distinguished by its large alphanumeric,
full ASCII keyboard. The firmware is described in a separate manual.
The EasyPak 501 SA is a ready-to-use package containing an 8 dots/mm EasyCoder
501 SA printer fitted with a label-taken sensor, a memory card adapter, a real-time
clock, and devices for label peel off and rewinding of labels and backing paper. The
package also contains the UBI LabelShop label-editing program for Microsoft
Windows and a connection cable. Plug the printer to a PC, create and download the label
formats and texts you need, and unplug it. Then you can move the printer anywhere you
like, provided there is a mains supply.
