SP80 is a 9-needle impact matrix printer mechanism with an integrated electronic driver board. The mechanism is equipped with a ballistic 9 needle printing head, able to print at 150 cps (characters per second) in Draft mode and 25 cps in NLQ (Near Letter Quality) mode on 3 copies + 1, the original.

SP80 is particularly suited to portable applications, owing to its compact size and reduced weight. Power requirements have been kept to a minimum by means of two DC motors with integrated optical encoder, which, thanks to the integrated driver board, ensure the same positioning precision, at a fraction of power, as conventional stepping motors.

SP80 can print in the graphics mode along with different character fonts, both in draft and NLQ mode.

SP80 has been developed mainly for portable applications, e.g. notebook computer, and thanks to its compactness and reliability, can also be used in static applications where space is at a premium.

The SP80 is used in our Printers and Suitcases:
- MP2000
- MP2005
- MDS2000
- MO2000

The SP80 is ideal to be build-in your own products.
