The Star Choice
1. Specialist Packaged Star’s packaged printers offer ease of installation, a variety of interface options and are CloudPRNT compatible for internet connected services. Ideal for self-service kiosks where staff are physically present to replenish print media.
- Lower cost hardware in comparison to modular solutions
- Easier to install, change paper rolls and maintain with the front-loading mC-Print3
- 10cm roll has 60% more paper on the roll than the standard 8cm offered by other packaged printers (TSP700II and TSP800II)
