Label printer Honeywell PM45C Thermal transfer 203x203 DPI 350 mm/sec

The Honeywell PM45C is a thermal transfer label printer designed for high-volume and industrial label applications. It provides a maximum resolution of 203 x 203 DPI and a top print speed of 350 mm/sec (up to 14 ips), making it suitable for manufacturing, warehouse, and distribution environments that require reliable, precise label printing. The printer supports a broad range of media and ribbon options and includes a durable all-metal print mechanism for continuous operation with reduced maintenance.

Advantages

The PM45C offers accurate print registration (up to ±0.5 mm) for crisp barcodes, text, and images even on small labels. It is built on Honeywell's proven print platform with tool-free platen roller and printhead replacement to minimize downtime. The model supports multiple connectivity and interface options, enhanced WWAN capability, and compatibility with RFID and applicator interfaces. Embedded Smart Parse and Operational Intelligence software simplify label changes and remote monitoring without requiring backend system modifications.
