The Simplicity of PDF & Postscript Printing Combined with the Reliability and Low Operating Cost that Only Line Matrix can Deliver


OpenPrint functionality allows P8000 line matrix printers to receive PDF or PostScript output directly from any ERP, WMS, or Windows application. Print Quality is maximized through native PostScript fonts and PDF interpreters. Barcode quality is managed by way of Printronix SureScan technology which ensures linear barcodes are printed with optimal readability. 2D barcodes, including QR Code, can also be printed, however, readability is dependent on the size of the barcode.

OpenPrint delivers an unprecedented opportunity to leverage the industrial strength of line matrix technology within virtually any application environment. For those running legacy systems, OpenPrint upgradeability provides investment protection. For those who have migrated, or are migrating, to new application systems, OpenPrint offers IT professionals the option of deploying a no-compromise printing solution designed to deliver the lowest possible operating cost and unmatched dependability across a broad range of office and industrial environments. Standardizing on PDF / PostScript printing in the office, on the production line and in the warehouse simplifies document management across departments and simplifies the deployment and support of printers by the IT department.

Printronix OpenPrint functionality can be enabled on P8000 Plus models via the OpenPrint Field Option Upgrade Kit, or it is included as standard with our HD printers which provide the highest text and graphic quality thanks to their smaller hammer tips.
