With thermal printers being used in a wider and deeper range of industries, DATAMAX continues to maintain its leadership in printer design and performance with the M-CLASS printer, which uses a one-piece cast aluminum base frame to improve printer durability and maintain consistent high performance. As with other types of DATAMAX printers, the M-CLASS truly modular design, so that the installation and removal of various options can be easily completed in the field. DATAMAX printer application flexibility is unparalleled in the bar code printer industry, DATAMAX aims to bring users a more cost-effective products, the M-CLASS continues this philosophy. While the design and organization of a bar code printer hinges on its durability, the ability to interface with existing and new systems hinges on its ability to seamlessly plug into any application. the M-CLASS comes with an RS-232 serial port, an IEEE1284 standard bi-directional parallel port, and a USB interface. Network users also have a variety of options, including a fully integrated high-performance built-in network card, or more economical external network port.DATAMAX also provides a set of desktop configuration tools DMXConfig, users do not need to enter the printer's menu to obtain, modify, upgrade the printer's configuration. Users can also save and send the printer settings to multiple printers as needed. The M-CLASS was launched to address the needs of emerging markets, including the medical, light industrial, retail and transportation industries, among others. The printer's advanced menu system and rugged features maximize the value orientation in this market. Multi-featured and economically priced, the M-CLASS is ideal for the desktop and light industrial sectors.
