Label printer Honeywell PM45 Compact Thermal transfer 203 x 203 DPI 350 mm/sec

The Honeywell PM45 Compact thermal transfer label printer provides reliable high-volume printing for manufacturing and supply chain applications. Built on Honeywell's print platform, the PM45 delivers consistent print quality for barcodes, text, and images with a 203 x 203 DPI resolution and print speeds up to 350 mm/sec (approximately 14 ips). The device supports a wide range of media and ribbon types and is designed for integration into cloud or local systems via multiple network and protocol options.

Advantages

The PM45 offers precise print registration (up to ±0.5 mm), a rugged all-metal print mechanism, and easy maintenance with tool-free platen roller and printhead replacement. It includes enhanced WWAN connectivity and optional interfaces such as RFID, parallel, industrial ports, and applicator support to meet evolving site requirements. Embedded Smart Parse and Operational Intelligence software simplify label layout changes and remote diagnostics without extensive backend changes.
