Manual of product CT-S851II
Editorial note
The Citizen CT-S851II printer stands out with its impressive printing speed of 300 mm/sec, which optimizes work time and enhances productivity. Its compact design, with suitable dimensions, allows for easy integration into various work environments. Additionally, its direct thermal printing technology offers optimal print quality, while its splash resistance ensures appreciable durability, even in challenging usage conditions. However, the lack of Ethernet/LAN and Wifi connectivity may limit its integration into modern environments, which is a notable drawback for users seeking increased flexibility. Furthermore, the 0.384 MB flash memory may prove insufficient for handling more complex prints, and its weight of 2000 g can make the printer less portable. Although its operating range is reasonable, it does not support extreme temperatures, which may restrict its use in certain settings. In terms of robustness, the product scores excellently due to its splash resistance and the durability of its automatic cutter. The value for money is satisfactory, even if the limitations regarding connectivity and memory may be sticking points for some users. Finally, the user manual, comprehensive and detailed, facilitates installation and use, although additional online resources could enhance the user experience.Score details
