Citizen CL-E730 Label Printers, Thermal Transfer, USB, Ethernet

SKU: 

MOD-CL-E730

The CL-E700 series of robust, high performance four inch tabletop label printers deliver excellent high definition quality with low print costs. The Hi-Open metal case design minimizes the space requirement of each CL-E700 series label printer, making it the ultimate choice for tight spaces. The footprint of the printers remains the same whether the top cover is open or closed, while the EasyLift media holder ensures changing media rolls is quick, easy and safe. The CL-E700 series includes three label printers, each of which deliver a range of benefits. When only Direct thermal printing is required, the CL-E720DT is ideal. Where speed is vital, the CL-E720 is essential. When sharp, detailed prints are needed, the CL-E730 offers both Direct thermal and Thermal transfer printing methods at 300 dpi.
