The B-452-HS printer is fitted with a 600 dpi printhead, the highest resolution available in the thermal transfer printer market. The high resolution print of the B-452-HS meets the market demand for small or varied print runs on demand where as conventional thermal transfer printers cannot produce images of a high enough quality for product, caution, or care labels. With the B-452-HS, TEC provides a label printing solution which can eliminate setup costs, such as those for artwork, and reduces stock control and production costs by removing the need for pre-printed labels.
