The printer is equipped with a 4-pin impact mechanism which uses ordinary
44.5mm paper rolls with a maximum of 16 columns per line, and housed
inside it is a battery which means the printer can be operated without being
connected to an electrical outlet.
The S16SB is so compact, lightweight and economical that it can be
installed extremely easily on any type of equipment.
It has a standard RS232 serial interface.
PRINTER DESCRIPTION
The printer has an ABS casing with a cover which opens to allow access to
the paper roll and print head.
On the front of the panel there is a ON-OFF / FEED key and an LED.
