Key Advantages

The PJ773 offers high-resolution printing up to 300 dpi, ensuring crisp text output. It operates using direct thermal technology, eliminating the need for ink or toner cartridges and reducing maintenance costs. The printer supports multiple connectivity options, including USB and serial ports, enabling versatile device compatibility. Its compact and lightweight design allows for easy portability and field use. The ability to print on various media types, including continuous rolls and cut sheets, adds to its flexibility.

Limitations

As a thermal printer, the PJ773 is limited to black-and-white printing and cannot produce color documents. The printing speed is relatively slow compared to modern portable printers, which might impact productivity. It requires thermal paper, which can be more expensive and less durable than regular inkjet or laser paper. The serial and USB 1.1 connectivity may be outdated for current devices that prefer wireless options like Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. It has a limited print width of approximately 3 inches, restricting its use to smaller documents. Additionally, the printer does not support network printing, limiting its use in multi-user office environments.
