Life and love with your Printronix P8000 - but who can you talk to about your relationship?

Here you are with your dandy Printronix P8000 line impact printer. Where did it come from? Where do you get ribbons? What if it needs deep cleaning or repair?

You could call the place where your company bought it. So many users that we talk to have NO IDEA of the reseller. Others got it on the internet. Purchased from a company where their predominant business is IT, selling servers and POS terminals. With names like Egg-something, CD-something, Compu-something, Info-something, Pea-something. It might have seemed like a good deal at the time. Now you discover that the supplier "doesn't know beans from apple-butter" about the Printronix product line. Drivers. Ribbons. Service. No help. At all.

Some of the Printronix P8000 units came to you as used or refurbished. Some units have no service contract, or it is unknown what your 'Corporate' did in that regard.

Where can you turn? Where are the "friendlies"? Can you find someone that wants to help? Someone, to care?

Zebra ZT600 Series, the Replacement for Zebra Xi Industrial Thermal Printers

Zebra ZT600 Series Thermal Printers -The next phase in the legendary Zebra Xi Series Industrial Printer Family

Pictured: Zebra ZT600 Series featuring the 4” Zebra ZT610 and the 6” Zebra ZT620

Never before in the history of Zebra Thermal printers have there been a new series like this.
So smart, so easy, and so strong, the new Zebra ZT600 Series now beats all the Xi units in history. The Xi has a loyal following earned with long-service-life, reliability, durability, and speed. The old Zebra Xi has dominated workplace printer installations. The new ZT600 continues the legacy and has improved in key areas.

ZEBRA ZT600 USER IMPROVEMENTS
Media Loading for Labels and Ribbons. WOW, what an improvement! No more ‘threading-the-needle’ in a Zebra Xi model. Easy, intuitive loading from the side cuts down on time to reload and the training of new users.
Red User Display. Its face turns red when it has trouble! The new ZT600 has a display that goes red if a media error occurs. Users can see it from across the room.
Runway Lights. Well, not precisely, but the ZT600 has integrated internal cabinet lights. They show how and where to load the labels/tickets and ribbon, and then change color to show problems.
Now-What QR Codes to Videos? Can’t remember the fix? There are QR Codes for users to access specific videos for specific errors.
Head Off Issues with Printheads. These heads make it easy to be a quick-change artist. There are no more wires and, better yet, no more hassles. There are great easy-to-adjust pressure toggles with a scale and pressure indicators color-coded. All these improvements work toward the simplification of setup and operation.

ZEBRA ZT600 CAPABILITY BOOSTS
“It’s all right to be little-bitty” (says, Tom T. Hall and Alan Jackson). Need to print tiny little labels? Labels for circuit boards and such? The ZT610 with 600 dpi prints on 3mm labels with great print alignment and registration.
Ready when you are – for RFID. The built-in readiness for the optional RFID upgrade gives the buyer peace of mind. If RFID is in the future, the ZT600 is ready to move with you.
Smart insight. Keep up with these printers from a distance with Zebra Link-OS or with integration into systems. Management connectors ease the use and integration into SOTI Device Management and AirWatch. Zebra’s Visibility Service Portfolio and Operational & Asset Visibility Services (OVS/AVS) keep watching.

InfoPrint 75 and InfoPrint 100 User? "Turn out the lights, the party's over!"

We tried to warn you back in 2016 with our blog on the InfoPrint 75 and InfoPrint 100. when we wrote, "Don't be captive in the Ricoh cage with the InfoPrint 75 or InfoPrint 100."

Ricoh was bound to pull the plug on these great printers, and now it has happened. Service customers have received notice from Ricoh service that come April 1, 2021, there's no more service. We expect that their sole-source Ricoh toner availability will come to a screeching halt at the same time.

As Willie Nelson famously wrote and sang, "Turn out the lights, the party's over. They say that all good things must end. Call it a night! The party's over. And tomorrow starts the same old thing again." Except for InfoPrint users, as there is now a limit to those tomorrows.  March 31, 2021, to be exact.

In another great Willie song, he wrote "It's been so long now, but it seems now, that it was only yesterday! Gee, ain't it funny, how time slips away." The TIME IS NOW to include your replacement choice into the budget planning for this change that's now upon us.

What can users do if they still need reliable continuous forms laser printing (with or without IPDS print language) and onsite service? Contact Warren Neeley at Printer Connection at 817-430-6202 for some great options in CF Lasers.

Microplex F90HD - the Microplex SOLID F90HD

A SOLID PERFORMER.
In the marketplace for continuous-forms laser printers, the Microplex F90HD is a solid performer. In fact, the name Microplex SOLID F90HD indicates its heritage with other SOLID printers using the Microplex MPC Controller technology. 

SOLID CONTROLLER STRENGTH IN THE MICROPLEX F90HD. 
The MPC Controller has been a Microplex asset for more than 20 years in the making. The MPC is the basis of all the production CF continuous forms printers in the Microplex lineup. Customers may choose from the SOLID F40, SOLID F60HD, SOLID F90HD, and SOLID F166VS. All the standard and optional functions and the emulations are in the firmware of the embedded hardware controller.

EMULATIONS.
Controller emulations allow Microplex printers with the MPC to interpret print jobs. It can take print streams presented in other printer languages from other manufacturers. Those other commands convert to generate similar printouts for the equal output. A vital strength of the Microplex controller is to adapt these other printer languages across all print technologies. For example, some customers would like to use existing thermal printer data streams designed for a Zebra thermal. The MPC enables this job to move to a Microplex continuous form laser printer with ease.

IPDS SUCCESS WITH THE MICROPLEX F90HD.
Microplex has a long history of working with the IPDS language. IPDS is the choice for many IBM customers and others in the production print marketplace. Choose from a complete emulation of the venerable InfoPrint 62 or a more simple version. Customers can make a smooth move to the power of flash fusion printing with the Microplex F90HD.

GREAT PRINT QUALITY WITH THE MICROPLEX SOLID F90HD.
The Microplex F90HD comes with an improved flash fusion print engine coupled with the SOLID MPC Controller. This combination provides high-quality fusing of the characters, barcodes, and images. Customers can choose from a broad spectrum of media choices because of flash fusing. This technology has a far lower fusing temperature than other lasers with heat/pressure/roller fusing. The F90HD is a good choice for pressure-sensitive labels, tags, and high-tack adhesives. Many other specialty forms and media are possible with this printer.

For more information and a quote for your particular requirement, email WNeeley@pciprinters.com or call 866-430-6202. Contact Warren at Printer Connection to discuss how the F90HD or other Microplex printers can help your business.

MicroPlex F32 Laser Printer

MicroPlex F32 with optional Stacker/Stand

IS IT DEAD? NOPE! You can reject others that tell you the MicroPlex F32 continuous form laser printer is at end-of-life. Not true when you deal with GLM Group and Printer Connection. PCI has purchased a huge stock of these consumables for this reason along with plenty of spare service parts.  
The MicroPlex F32 Laser is a great, tough 32 PPM continuous form laser printer that is a reliable replacement for MicroPlex F24, Printronix laser legacy customers, or any Line Printer running single-part paper or labels.
 
The F32 Laser Printer features all of the versatility and print quality of a laser printer yet competes with line printer pricing.
 

The Benefits of a Line Printer Without the Look of Matrix Impact Printing

High speed, high resolution, use of fanfold media, quick warm-up time, and quiet operation made it ideal for office environments. These printers are designed for high reliability and ease-of-use.
