The 136 column ML5721eco dot matrix printer delivers fast, reliable multi-part forms printing and low running costs. A high 700cps (characters per second) print speed, fast throughput and ability to manage heavy medias make it perfect for demanding environments such as vehicle repair/service centres, warehouses, factories, wholesalers and freight forwarders.
Ideal for high duty applications, printing receipts, invoices, picking lists, reports and wide format spreadsheets, on single or multi-part paper, the ML5721eco printer will keep productivity levels high. And with multiple emulations built-in, replacing old printers is simple and straightforward.
Flexible, Eco-friendly and cost effective
Equipped with a long life ribbon and a power saving 1.5W “Sleep mode” the ML5721eco printer will keep running costs and energy consumption to the minimum, as well as reducing your carbon footprint.
The ML5721eco printer can feed both cut sheet paper and continuous forms with ease. Front, top, bottom and rear paper input paths and an on-board tractor feed unit that can be front or rear mounted provide truly versatile paper handling. A long life 9-pin print head delivers high quality documents on single or multi-part paper printing up to 7 copies simultaneously.
Optional push and pull tractor feed units are available to allow the loading of two different media types simultaneously or the feeding of heavier papers and labels.
USB and parallel interfaces are standard with optional RS232 Serial and Network interfaces available. And with an easy to use operator panel, multiple emulations and a range of fixed pitch fonts, scalable fonts and barcodes built-in the ML5721eco is both system and user friendly.
