|
Periodical logging considerably reduces the paper consumption of USB printers, also called page printers. Here the individual print lines are first collected in the Centronics - USB Converter and then printed out page by page in DIN A4 standard paper size. Omitted pages can be printed out manually any time by pressing the function push-button. |
Increased data security
|
To increase data security the Centronics - USB Converter is equipped with a dynamic printer memory. During failures in the USB printer, more than 100 DIN A4 pages are available as intermediate storage. The accumulated printing data is automatically printed out on paper as soon as the printing failure has been cleared, or alternatively, once a USB Stick is connected to the electronic storage. |
Wide Printer Selection
|
With a Centronics
- USB Converter conventional log printers can be easily replaced by up-to-date USB printers*. More than 1500 available USB printers (ink-jet or laser printers, black/white or colored) from various companies can be used.
|
No Refitting required
|
The Ipcas Centronics – USB converter is almost maintenance-free and offers production companies great opportunities to connect new printer generations to older machines for logging. No conversions of machines or interfaces are required.
|
Easy to configure
Easy to configure
|
Presettings and additional parameters
such as activating time stamps for periodical logs can be quite easily
set or adapted for the Centronics -
USB Converter. The configuration program is
called from the provided USB Stick onto a PC where the parameters are set and
saved. All you have to do then is to insert the USB Stick into the Centronics - USB Converter. The Converter adopts the settings independently and stores them
internally. Future software updating can be performed with the USB Stick just as easily.
