High speed thermal printhead

(300 dots / inch)

NF3004-VA30A

NF-VA30 series are the thermal printheads developed for high-speed / high-resolution printing for the market of bar-code

printer & scale-printer, based on “step-free” structure. These printheads realize ultra-highspeed printing with long life &

high reliability.

Applications

Barcode printers

Label printers

Packaging printers

ATM

Ticket printers

Scale printers

Features

1) High dot reproducibility with step-free structure.

2) High-hardness protect cote type “W-coat” is employed with 150km abrasion life-time.

3) Even without history-control, high-speed printing more than 300mm/s can be achieved at 300dpi with clear print image.

With history-control, 500mm/s printing is also possible at 300dpi.
