Specifications
In terms of printing technology, the Brother PT-D800W utilizes thermal transfer printing. This method involves applying heat to a ribbon, which then transfers the ink onto the label material. The printer’s print head boasts a resolution of 360 dots per inch (dpi), while the color depth reaches 454 dots. For even higher quality prints, the high-resolution mode can achieve a maximum resolution of 720 dpi x 360 dpi when connected to a computer. This ensures that text and graphics are crisp and clear, even at small sizes.
The velocity of the printer when powered by an AC adapter attains a peak of 60 mm per second, whereas when running on the battery, it ranges from 20 mm per second to 60 mm per second. These fluctuations are contingent on the width of the tape utilized in the printer, and the effective print speed is also influenced by other critical variables.
The Brother PT-E550WVP label printer supports several cassette types, including the Brother HSe tube cassette, Brother FLe label cassette, and the Brother TZe tape cassette. The TZe tape cassette, which utilizes a 36 mm tape, is the largest of the three, while the HSe tube cassette measures 23.6 mm. With a maximum file storage capacity of 99 files, this printer is perfect for organizing large labeling projects. For connectivity, the printer features a USB 2.0 full speed port.
The device’s power options are primarily driven by the AC adapter with model number (AD9100ESA) which supplies 24 volts. An alternative power source is the Li-ion battery that provides 14.4 volts, but after 30 minutes the printer automatically powers off. If using the AC adapter, it may take up to 4 hours for the printer to fully charge.
