Datamax-O'Neil Compact4 Mark
The Datamax-O'Neil Compact4 Mark is a powerful response
to desktop thermal printing requirements, and ideal for
on-demand printing, especially where space is limited. The
printer is ideal at the front desk of a hospital or in the
box office of a movie theatre. Able to deliver continuous
operation, the Datamax-O'Neil Compact4 is the printer of
choice whenever ease of use, reliability and high
performance are a must.
Datamax-O'Neil Compact4 Mark and Nova Highlights and
Benefits
Get the Most for Your
Investment
Datamax-O'Neil Compact4 Mark and Nova printers are
uniquely positioned between desktop and tabletop-sized
printers. They share the same small footprint size of most
desktop-sized entry level printers and the industrial grade
ruggedness of table top-sized mid-range printers. They are
the first to truly combine rugged reliability in a small
footprint. Key features are listed below:
- Small but Mighty: The Datamax-O'Neil Compact4 printers have an
incredibly small footprint which allows them to be used
in applications where space is limited. Their compact
size takes up less than half the space of a traditional
desktop label printer but with the same duty cycle and
strength.
- Rugged: The
Datamax-O'Neil Compact4 printers are constructed on a
solid cast metal frame and protected with metal die cast
covers. Unlike other small printers, the Compact4 series
are industrial printers that are built to withstand the
rigors of a warehouse or high volume printing
application.
- Range: The
Nova series of printers offer robust, high-performance
range of thermal transfer and direct thermal printers
with 3 different print widths: 4.1” [104 mm] - 6.6” [168
mm] - 8.5” [216 mm], print resolutions of 200 or 300
dpi, and print speed up to 9.8”/s [up to 250 mm/s]
- Media loading
is unlike any other printer in the market. The levers
are large and easy to manage -- so easy that the
operation can be done single handed while wearing a
leather or latex glove. The paper path is slotted
through the side of the printer with no covers to open
or clamshells to unlock. Loading media doesn’t get any
easier.
- Software:
Labelpoint is a simple yet powerful command language
that controls the Compact4 and Nova printers. TeraTerm
is an easy to use DOS terminal program for configuring
these printers. MP Design is powerful label design
software which programs label formats in the printers
native command language, Labelpoint. MP Design software
comes standard with Compact and Nova printers.
Datamax-O'Neil Compact4 Mark and Nova Options and
Accessories
MP Compact4 and Nova printers are offered with a wide
variety of options and accessories to meet the needs of many
industrial applications. A complete list of options and
accessories are available on the partner center. The most
commonly used options are listed below:
 |
W-LAN
Optional 802.11 B/G wireless LAN makes it easy to
connect to networks and makes mobile printing
operations easy. The wireless option has the latest
WPA2 security protocol. (not available for Nova
printers)
- |
 |
Emulations
DPL version of the Compact4 Mark printers is
available with PL-Z, PL-I, or PL-B emulation
capabilities, making it easy to replace competitive
printers. (not available for Nova printers)
- |
 |
Tower Kit
Unlike any other printer in the industry, the
Compact4 printers can be stacked using the tower
rack accessory. The rack is designed to maintain the
footprint occupied by a single printer while
allowing easy loading and printing operations.
- |
 |
Wall Mounting Kit
The wall mounting kit allows the printer to be wall
mounted quickly and easily. It is ideal in
applications where counter space is limited and the
printer is in close proximity.
- |
 |
Label Taken Sensor Kit
The label taken sensor, also known as LTS, is
commonly used with the peeler kit. A photo cell is
mounted facing upward at the label exit to detect
when the label is taken. The photo cell controls the
printing pace so that the next label is printed only
after the previous label has been removed.
- |
 |
Peeler Kit
The peeler kit automatically separates the label
from the label liner (backing) by pulling the liner
over a sharp edge and winding it onto a three
pronged spindle. This allows the user to take a
printed label directly from the printer and apply
it. A peeler kit along with a label taken sensor kit
automates applying labels by removing the label
liner and pausing printing until the label is taken
- |
 |
Large Roll Kit
The large roll kit allows the printer to handle a
larger roll loaded onto its spindle which increases
the roll diameter capacity from 3.9”( 100mm) to 5.9”
(150mm). The kit requires removing the old spindle
and installing a new spindle that displaces the roll
further from the printer.
- |
 |
Heavy Duty Cutter
This option is available on the Compact4 printer.
The cutter attaches to the front of the printer and
cuts the material after it has stopped, allowing it
to fall freely. The cutter option allows you to cut
a label or tag to the desired length or cut between
labels, so that the printed materials can be easily
stacked. The heavy duty cutter allows reliable
cutting through label and liner or card stock as
thick as 180 m [0.007 inches]. This accessory may
only be installed at the factory or by a qualified
service technician. |
Datamax-O'Neil Compact4 Mark and Nova Industry Solutions
The Datamax-O'Neil Compact4 and Nova printers are all
equipped with an auto-ranging power supply making them ready
for use anywhere in the world. The Datamax-O'Neil MP printer
is a perfect solution for industrial manufacturing,
transportation and logistics, retail, and pharmaceutical
applications. Providing cost effective printing solutions is
made easy with Datamax-O'Neil Compact4 and Nova printers.
 |
Industrial Manufacturing
Manufacturers use MP printers for applications
throughout their product lines with typical
applications requiring as much as 4000 labels per
shift. MP printers are used for many applications
including asset tracking, work-in-progress labels,
agency labels, and instruction labels to name a few.
- |
 |
Transportation and Logistics
The transportation and logistics industries use
barcode labels in their distribution and warehousing
facilities primarily for labeling shipments with
critical shipping information. Because every
shipment is different, the label printer must be
able to handle the high demand with continually
changing data. The MP Series is ideal to meet the
requirements in applications such as cross docking,
shipping labels, pallet tracking, and in sorting
centers.
- |
 |
Pharmaceuticals
Pharmacies use MP printers to print prescription
labels. The labels containing critical information
for the patient are adhered to the outside of the
pill bottle or box of medication. Printing this
information rather than hand writing avoids errors
and misinterpretation which can lead to serious
consequences. Most widely used applications include
compliance labels, track & trace, and pick lists.
- |
 |
Retail
Retail barcoding is more than just scanning an item
at checkout. It follows a complete cycle, and starts
when the product is received, stocked, displayed,
sold, returned, and prepared for resale or return to
manufacturer. The small size and versatility of the
MP Series make it the ideal solution for generating
item labels and shelf tags at every stage of the
retail sales process. |
