Description

Description

The Citizen CL-E730 (1000854) is a cost-effective 4-inch industrial label printer that fits where floor space is tight: its Hi-Open™ metal case lifts vertically, so the footprint stays the same when it is open. This version prints thermal transfer or direct thermal at 300 dpi and up to 150 mm/s (6 ips), takes label rolls up to 200 mm (8") on 1"–3" cores, runs 360 m ribbons with the ink side in or out, and has USB and Ethernet built in plus a free slot for an optional Wi-Fi, serial or parallel card.
