The cost savings, reliability and forms flexibility offered by Printronix line matrix printers continue to make this the best technology option for many critical print applications. The P7000HD extends the reach of applications that can benefit from this technology even further. As existing line matrix applications are migrated to new systems or new applications are developed, the traditional method of hard coding applications for a specific printer is diminishing. Instead, programmers are leveraging more general purpose Windows based tools that take advantage of a virtually limitless array of font styles, sizes and graphics, while avoiding any printer specific coding. The P7000HD provides all the necessary print resolution and system capability to drop straight into these typical laser environments without any application modifications or special accommodations.

These printers offer such high definition that items such as proportional spacing, complex fonts, logos, PDFs and super small point sizes look just as they are designed and intended at a fraction of the cost of laser. Using the P7000HD high performance Windows drivers, the application programmer designs the output to match their requirements without needing to worry about any limitations of the printer.

The nominal print density for these printers is 180x180 dots per inch (DPI). Alternately, 120x120 and 90x180 DPI modes are available when image detail can be traded for speed. The printers incorporate

special fine tip technology to produce much smaller dots than the standard P7000. All of this is driven by the P7000’s PSA3 controller, which provides the necessary power to drive these complex graphics at full speed. The result is the sharpest highest quality image ever produced by Printronix.
