Inexpensive Thermal Receipt Printer
Citizen introduces the CT-S310 printer for POS applications
With the launch of the new CT-S310, Citizen Systems Europe, a leading manufacturer of high-quality POS, label and barcode printers, has introduced the successor to its established CT-S300 receipt printer. Thanks to a new motherboard that features DMA technology (Direct Memory Access), the new printer prints graphics and text at speeds of 150 mm per second, 50% faster than the previous model.
The new CT-S310 also follows the multiple interface approach that is unique in the POS marketplace. USB is always present and customers can select between parallel and serial as the second standard interface. This makes the printer an extremely safe long term investment, as it is likely that USB will also become the benchmark for POS applications in the future, enabling customers simply to use the existing interface and avoid incurring additional costs.
In addition, the CT-S310 features an internal power supply. This means that the printer requires less space and eliminates the problems of cable spaghetti. The power supply unit can also be removed to turn the printer into the world’s smallest printer of its kind where it can be used as a traditional desktop printer or installed vertically or on a wall.
The new printer can be used with a wide range of paper media, making it extremely flexible. The CT-S310 can print on paper widths of 58 or 80mm in black or, with suitable media, in two colours.
The CT-S310 is particularly suited for all POS applications in retail and hospitality, where price-conscious customers still require the high quality and reliability of a brand product. The new printer is also easy to set up thanks to the unique customization software that Citizen supplies; this allows printer settings to be modified or logos to be uploaded, with support for common standards, enabling the CT-S310 to be easily integrated into a wide range of applications.
