With a width of just 180 mm and a depth of 190 mm, this printer offers a space-saving alternative to larger desktop printers, making it particularly suitable for locations with limited space, such as retail outlets, hotels, restaurants, and pharmacies. The SP298 is equipped with a reliable 9-pin print head that enables precise and sharp prints of graphics and special characters. This bidirectional printer offers high reliability with a helix head drive and an impressive MCBF (Mean Cycles Between Failures) of 9 million lines, at a print speed of 3.1 lines per second. The AutoSide Loading™ feature significantly simplifies document loading, as the printer automatically checks and corrects the position and orientation of the forms. Additionally, the SP298 supports a paper width of up to 182 mm and a length of 80 to 257 mm. It includes a copy function for printing originals as well as two additional copies.
