LTPH243 PRINTER

LTPH243 presents the first low power-supply

mechanism by Seiko Instruments supplemen-

ting the easy paper operation line. Using only

3V (voltage range from 2.7 to 5.6V) and due

to its comfortable battery drive of only one

lithium-ion or, alternatively, three Ni-MH /

Ni-Cd batteries, LTPH243 is an ideal print

mechanism for all portable devices such as

handheld terminals in the EFT-POS market.

The LTPH243 thermal printer combines extra-

ordinary compact design and high-speed, high

resolution thermal line dot printing with

easiest paper installation. A lock arm either

holds the platen or opens it when pushing the

release lever. In addition, two springs guaran-

tee an even pressure between thermal head

and platen roller. LTPH243 is applicable for

electronic cash registers, measuring instru-

ments and analysers, various POS applications

as well as communication and data terminal

devices.
