PRINTRONIX

Zero tear line Matrix Printers

Printronix has launched the latest addition to its dot matrix printer family. It has created Zero Tear printers for applications requiring precise accounting of all forms or for forms that are simply too expensive to waste. These dmp models (P5000ZT) allow users to print from the first to the last line on every form and then tear it off without losing any forms in between. Printronix claims that a serial matrix printer’s consumable cost can be up to 12 times more expensive than Printronix’s Zero Tear Printer.
