Exceptional Service. On-time Deliveries. World Class Quality. Value You Can Depend Upon! All at a Competitive Price.
LINE MATRIX PRINTERS Printronix invented the concept of line matrix printing in 1974, and has enhanced its line matrix printers through six generations of technological developments. Typically, 10 times less expensive than laser or serial matrix, Printronix line matrix delivers significant cost savings in all high volume applications.
P7000 LINE MATRIX PRINTERS 4 The P7000 family, recently introduced, offers seven models, all designed to meet the needs of offices, industrial companies, and distribution centres requiring unsurpassed impact printing.
P7000HD LINE MATRIX PRINTERS 5 www.printronix.com The P7000HD extends the reach of line matrix printing to high quality industrial graphics. Migrating to new systems built around Windows™ and graphics based printing, no longer means having to forgo the traditional line matrix benefits of reliability, low cost, and forms flexibility. Preserving all the industry leading features of the 6th generation P7000 platform, the new P7000HD is ready to drop directly in place of any Windows connected laser printer.
P7000 LINE MATRIX STANDARD RIBBON Central to the development of the new P7000 family of line matrix printers was the design of a completely new consumable. Addressing our customers' requests for fewer user interventions, darker images, and easier ribbon loading, the new P7000 Ultra Capacity Ribbon was created. Formulated for high yield, dark, high definition bar code and text printing. These ribbons increase printing productivity with fewer ribbon changes resulting in reduced overall cost of printing.
P7000 LINE MATRIX COLOUR & SPECIALTY RIBBONS 7 www.printronix.com Printronix provides ribbons to meet the needs of all your specialty applications. These ribbons are manufactured to the same exacting specifications as other Genuine Printronix ribbons. Description Yield Application Fits Part No.
P7000 LINE MATRIX COLOUR & SPECIALTY RIBBONS * Tamper Evident Ribbon The printout may slightly differ depending on the type of the paper on which it is printed.
P7000HD LINE MATRIX STANDARD RIBBON 9 www.printronix.com A special high definition formulation of Ultra Capacity ribbon was developed for the P7000HD Series to handle the unique challenges of high detail fine point printing. Like the standard Ultra Capacity ribbon, this new formulation delivers a sharper darker image for a greatly extended life. Compared to the most popular P5000H ribbons, these ribbons deliver a 20% darker image and twice the life.
P7000 CONSUMABLES QUESTIONS & ANSWERS 10 “Which ribbon is right for my application?” The P7000 Ultra Capacity ribbon is the right choice for most applications. It has been designed to give the darkest starting print, longest life, and lowest cost per page. It contains the necessary ingredients to be readable by infrared OCR and bar code scanners, and produces sharp, high contrast bar codes and text.
P7000 CONSUMABLES QUESTIONS & ANSWERS “Are the P5000 and P7000 ribbons interchangeable?” No. The P7000 ribbons are too large to physically fit in either the pedestal or quiet cabinet P5000 printers. Additionally, the new easy load hub on the P7000 will not accommodate the older P5000 spool design. 11 www.printronix.
P7000 CONSUMABLES QUESTIONS & ANSWERS 12 “Why should I use Genuine Printronix ribbons for my P7000?” The number one reason is reliability. Most manufacturers of third party ribbons use excessive, inconsistent, or low quality ink. Even if the resulting print quality is found to be acceptable, the impact on the mechanism is not. These poor formulations shed their ink into the hammer bank and eventually stop it from printing.
P5000 LINE MATRIX PRINTERS Model Speed (LPM) Style 13 www.printronix.
P5000 LINE MATRIX GOLD SERIES RIBBONS 14 The Gold Series Ribbons are formulated with a single ink providing optimal images for both text and bar code printing eliminating the need to purchase and inventory two separate ribbons. These ribbons increase printing productivity with fewer ribbon changes resulting in reduced overall cost of printing operations.
P5000 LINE MATRIX GOLD SERIES RIBBONS Advantages of P5000 Gold Series Ribbons All Gold Series ribbons have the same outstanding advantages of the Printronix standard ribbons, plus: 15 www.printronix.com • Highest printing capacity available… nearly double the life of standard P5000 ribbons. Significantly reduces ribbon changes and increases productivity. • Single ink formulation provides optimal images for both text and bar code printing… eliminates need to purchase and inventory two separate ribbons.

P5000 CONSUMABLES QUESTIONS & ANSWERS “Why can't I run my existing ribbons on the P5220 & P5224?” Although they may look similar, they are in fact quite different. The 2000 LPM printer achieves its high print speed by virtue of having dual rows of hammers. It is almost like two line matrix printers stacked on top of one another. This unique geometry, coupled with high speed printing, places very special demands on the ribbon design.
20 P5000 CONSUMABLES QUESTIONS & ANSWERS “Why does my generic ribbon print darker than the Printronix ribbon?” This is a true indication of an over-inked ribbon. Many generic ribbons contain excessive ink and appear to print darker. These ribbons will lead to expensive repairs due to ink migration onto the print hammers. When ink builds up as gummy, sticky deposits in the hammerbank, print quality deteriorates. This can result in the most costly repair in the printer.
P5000 CONSUMABLES QUESTIONS & ANSWERS “Are there any specific instructions to install the ribbon with the ball-shot attachment?” After removing your ribbon spools from the shrink wrap, please install the ribbon as received. DO NOT WIND THE RIBBON so all of the fabric is on one spool or you will experience ribbon reversing problems. 21 www.printronix.
COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER LINE MATRIX PRINTER BRANDS 22 During the past two decades, many of our competitors have recognised the inherent dependability, economy and quality that could be gained by utilising the Genuine Printronix ribbon’s configuration and spool design. They have incorporated these ribbons into their product offerings. Because of this, Genuine Printronix Gold Series, Barcode and Extended Life Text ribbons are fully compatible with printers from other distributors and manufacturers.

LEGACY LINE MATRIX RIBBON Given some recent improvements and design changes in our ribbon reversing construction (ball-shot attachment), some of the oldest Printronix Printer Models may not reverse direction properly when coming to the end of the spool. 29 www.printronix.com Indeed, the ribbon reversing circuitry in these models may not be sensitive enough to reliably reverse the new ribbons as they reach the end.

TM TM T4M /SL4M SUPPLIES QUESTIONS & ANSWERS 72 “Are T5e/T5r/SL5r ribbons and media compatible with the T4M/SL4M?” Yes, as long as the ribbons do not exceed 450 Meters in length and a 4.33” (110 mm) width. In addition, the SL4M/T4M can use ribbon with ink coated side in or coated side out without making any changes to the printer settings. As there is no toxic elements in the ribbons, they can be disposed as normal waste. Outside wound or inside wound media rolls will also work in the SL4M/T4M.
T5000TM/SL5000rTM SUPPLIES QUESTIONS & ANSWERS 73 www.printronix.com “How do I determine the correct ribbon for a specific application?” The intended application drives ribbon selection. Thorough testing under operational conditions of the ribbon and media that you have selected, is highly recommended in order to ensure the requirements of the application are met.
TM TM T5000 /SL5000r SUPPLIES QUESTIONS & ANSWERS “How do I compare ribbon costs?” The best way to compare basic ribbon cost is to calculate the ribbon cost per square meter (m2). This simple calculation allows a comparison of the basic ribbon cost using the area of the ribbon. The area of the ribbon is equal to width (in mm) multiplied by length (in meters). M2 = the total square meter area of the ribbon. For example, a 220 mm (8.66”) wide Printronix Thermal Transfer ribbon and 625 meters long.
75 www.printronix.com THERMAL SUPPLIES QUESTIONS & ANSWERS “How do I specify media?” To help select media consider the following questions: - Have you already selected a printing technology (Direct Thermal or Thermal Transfer)? - How long must your label last? (Film labels last longer than paper labels.) - What level of abrasion from handling or scanning is anticipated? (Wax/Resin blend ribbons increase resistance to abrasion. Extreme abrasion will require a tough face stock.
THERMAL SUPPLIES QUESTIONS & ANSWERS “How do I get a quote for media?” Simply provide the following information to your Printronix Supplies Representative (see page 2): • Label face stock (determined by asking questions outlined in “How do I specify media?” question on previous page). • Label construction: pressure sensitive or tag; perforation between each label; notch or printed 'top of form' mark; and any other special considerations. • Label size (width x height).
