EasyCoder 501 E
The EasyCoder 501 E (Enhanced) is a high performance multipurpose printer,
primarily intended for computer connection. It is available with either 8 dots/mm or
11.81 dots/mm printhead density. The large number of options and the programmable
keyboard makes it suitable for a variety of tasks, from heavy-duty industrial labelling
to office applications and ticketing. EasyCoder 501 E is fitted with the UBI Fingerprint
firmware, which is compatible with the UBI LabelShop label-editing program, the UBI
Windows Driver (optional parallel interface board required), the UBI Macintosh
Driver and the UBI Direct Protocol. The flexible UBI Fingerprint programming
language also allows you to create your own programs.
As an option, the EasyCoder 501 E can be fitted with a special firmware package that
allows scalable outline fonts in TrueType and Speedo formats to be used. In addition
to the selection of Speedo fonts included in the package, an ever increasing number of
standard outline fonts from major distributors becomes available and can be down-
loaded from a PC, directly or via a memory card.
The EasyPak 501 E is a ready-to-use package containing an 8 dots/mm EasyCoder
501 E printer fitted with a Centronics interface, a memory card adapter and all cables
and firmware required to connect it to a personal computer fitted with Microsoft
Windows. The UBI Windows Driver makes this model an ideal label printer for a large
number of programs run under Windows, and the UBI LabelShop label-editing
program allows you to create your own labels, while you have full control of the final
result on your computer screen.
