Manual of product XM7-40iK
Editorial note
The Bixolon XM7-40iK printer stands out with its modern and compact design, featuring an elegant black finish that fits perfectly into various work environments. Its built-in LCD screen of 240 x 320 pixels enhances the user experience by providing a clear and practical interface. In terms of performance, the printing speed of 127 mm/sec optimizes productivity. However, while the direct thermal printing technology ensures optimal quality, the printing speed of 5 ips may not be sufficient for high-demand environments. Additionally, the printing resolution of 203 x 203 DPI may not be suitable for users requiring fine details in their prints. The 6800 mAh nickel-metal hybrid battery is a major asset, offering extended battery life for daily use without frequent interruptions. However, connectivity, while versatile with both wired and wireless options, including Bluetooth 5.0, is limited by the absence of Ethernet/LAN connectivity, which could pose a problem in certain professional environments. Finally, the printer is designed to withstand extreme conditions, operating in a temperature range of -15 to 50 °C, making it a reliable choice for various settings. Despite a good price-to-quality ratio, limited compatibility with macOS could be a drawback for some users. Overall, the Bixolon XM7-40iK is a solid option for those seeking a high-performing and durable printer.Score details
