BIXOLON today launched its new XM7 Series; the XM7-20 for 2-inch (58mm) and XM7-40 for 4-inch (112mm) mobile label printing. Although small in size, this new addition raises the bar on productivity while representing a higher-level of features compared to BIXOLON’s existing mobile label printer the SPP-L3000.
Highlighted features include a TFT Colour display, easy-to-open peeler, smart battery with outstanding capacity, universal USB Type-C Power delivery charging, drop protection of up to 2.1 meters and IP54-rating. Providing a wealth of information on the battery’s health through BIXOLON’s web-based printer profile management software XPM, the XM7 Series guarantees an excellent performance for prolonged operations. With this real-time printer management solution, workflows can be streamlined, and the status of individual battery is monitored to ensure health visibility before productivity is impacted.
The XM7 Series supports industry leading command languages, such as SLCS, BPL-Z, BPL-C and BXL/POS to allow for seamless integration with customers’ existing systems. The XM7-20 prints labels at up to 6 ips while the XM7-40 provides print speed of up to 5 ips, both at 203 dpi. The new printers come with USB 2.0 and serial interfaces as standard, with additional Bluetooth V5.0 Classic (MFI Certified), WLAN 802.11a/b/g/n wireless technologies options. Simultaneous connection of both Bluetooth and WLAN is also enabled to ensure seamless operations without interruption. The new family supports easy Bluetooth pairing via NFC and smooth compatibility with major operating systems including Android and iOS.
Allowing large space for storing fonts, graphics, as well as firmware upgrades and tools, the new printers provide 128 MB SDRAM, 256 MB Flash memory as a standard and optional 256 MB SDRAM, 512 MB Flash memory. Plus, label design software such as BIXOLON’s free-of-charge Label Artist, Label Artist Mobile for iOS and Android, alongside industry leading BarTender. Simple and easy direct printing option from SAP® applications is also supported.
