Ultra resistant and reliable
The S828 sets a new standard for the ultimate in rugged desktop
reliability. More than a high-performance serial matrix printer, the S828 is
based on the traditional tradition of Printronix industrial printers that
offer maximum uptime, low cost of ownership and reliable operation in a wide
range of environments. In addition to the high-end 6-pin tractors for
optimum form-feed reliability and an industry-leading printhead life, the
Printronix S828's defining feature is the durable, highly functional metal
construction designed to Last longer than any other printer in this
category.
High Performance
Printronix S828 combines 800-speed print speed performance with a
high-function multilingual operator interface for efficient and intuitive
operation. Time is money, and the ability to fully automate and customize
form management will maximize user efficiency by eliminating keystrokes and
speeding up form retrieval. For larger distributed environments, the
Printronix S828 includes a powerful remote printer management utility so
that the IT department can view status updates in real time, remotely
configure multiple printers and access a fully functional virtual operator
panel. Printronix S828 also supports a second path of front feed forms,
Plug & Play compatibility
In addition to Ethernet, USB, parallel and standard serial, the S828 is
compatible with ANSI 3.64 and the 18-pin emulations used by Genicom and IBM
legacy printers to enable plug & play compatibility without requiring driver
or application changes. For IBM environments, the S828 offers true support
for IBM IPDS emulation.
