Limitations
This model uses direct thermal printing, which is susceptible to fading over time and unsuitable for long-term label durability. Print resolution is limited to 203 dpi, which may not meet needs requiring very high-detail printing. Media compatibility is focused on direct thermal labels, limiting the use of alternative printing methods such as thermal transfer. Some connectivity configurations may require additional modules or cables, impacting out-of-the-box usability. The device's color printing capability is not available, restricting use to monochrome labels only. User interface feedback is limited, which may complicate diagnostics without connected software tools.
