203 DPI Industrial Barcode Printing

The Argox DX-2300 provides 203 DPI printing resolution for compatible industrial barcode and identification labels.

This resolution may be suitable for applications involving:

• Product Barcode Labels
• Warehouse Location Labels
• Shipping and Carton Labels
• Inventory Identification
• Equipment Labels
• Manufacturing Tracking Labels
• General Business Identification

Barcode readability depends on label dimensions, print settings, media, ribbon selection and scanner compatibility.

Applications requiring smaller text or higher-density barcode printing should also consider the 300 DPI Argox DX-3200.

8 IPS Print Speed

The DX-2300 provides a maximum manufacturer-specified print speed of 8 inches per second, equivalent to approximately 203.2 mm/s.

The achievable printing speed depends on label content, media type, software settings and operating conditions.

Print speed should be evaluated together with the required resolution and barcode quality.

Direct Thermal and Thermal Transfer Printing

The DX-2300 supports two printing methods.

Direct Thermal Printing

Uses compatible heat-sensitive label media without a thermal transfer ribbon.

This method may be suitable for shipping, logistics and other applications where the selected media provides the required print life.

Thermal Transfer Printing

Uses a compatible ribbon to transfer printed information onto suitable label material.

Ribbon and label combinations can be selected according to application requirements, including different handling and environmental conditions.

Customers should verify the compatibility of wax, wax/resin or resin ribbons with the selected labels.
