P7000H Family of Line Matrix Printers
Question:
What is "The Power of Plus"?
Answer:
Innovations within the P7000H cartridge series of line matrix printers deliver substantial gains in reliability, productivity, cost improvement and environmental responsibility. The P7000H introduces easy to install cartridge ribbons. These benefits or “plusses” provide compelling reasons for business and industrial customers to upgrade or expand their current printers in use.
Question:
What are the differences between the P7000H cartridge printer and earlier P5000 and P7000H spool models?
Answer:
Installation of cartridge ribbons is faster and cleaner than spool ribbons saving time, reducing load errors and requires less user training. Across the world our printers are being used more by more people with less specialized job training. We have listened to our customers and have developed this new printer family that is much simpler to operate. Compared to the previous generation of line matrix spool ribbons, the P7000H Cartridge generates savings of up to 20% of the consumable cost per page.
Question:
Can the P7000H series provide quality reproduction of complex character sets?
Answer:
The P7000H family is specially designed to handle the character shapes found in many Asian languages. The combination of a fine point hammer design and a high processing controller provide the capability to print at a much higher resolution than earlier models. The P7000H series can reproduce all of the elaborate character strokes required in Asian languages with precise detail.
Question:
What powers the P7000H to deliver this fine, higher resolution?
Answer:
The combination of a fine point hammer design and a high processing controller provide the capability to print at a much higher resolution than standard line matrix or serial printers.
Question:
What types of printer choices are available?
Answer:
The P7000 cartridge series of line matrix printers is comprised of three distinctive product families and provides more variety to configure just the right solution for any industrial printing challenge. The P7000 family provides broader solutions for specialized, high-production environments and is available in four print speeds ranging from 500 to 2,000 lines per minute. P7000HD High Definition family of line matrix printers can drop into any typical Windows based laser print environment without any application modifications or special accommodations. There are three P7000 HD models to choose from. The P7000H family is available in three print speeds, ranging from 300 to 800 lines per minute and is specially designed for the Asia Pacific market. All combined you have a wide selection from 18 base printers with 7 accessory options from which to configure the right solution to meet your precise needs.
Question:
Can a new P7000H printer replace a serial matrix printer?
Answer:
Yes. All P7000H printers support the most common serial matrix printer emulations. Our Zero Tear model would be a drop in place low cost, print on demand replacement.
Question:
Why shouldn't I consider using a laser printer?
Answer:
Line matrix is the BEST solution for high volume, demanding print jobs that need to be done fast and without fail. Unlike laser printers, the P7000H wakes up from energy conservation mode quickly saving you important production time and reduced labor cost. Laser printers consume more power while printing, have shorter life spans and contribute significant waste in packaging and waste.
Question:
What are the environmental advantages of line matrix printing?
Answer:
The Printronix P7000H cartridge series is built to last for years and years, unlike shorter life cycle products such as laser and serial printers. Line matrix printers are engineered with features that promote less energy consumption and generate less waste. The series is ENERGY STAR® qualified, providing operational energy savings compared to laser printers. Additional environmental advantages include: waste reduction, less packaging, accommodates paper with high recycled content, easier recycling of printed paper, ozone reduction, and none of the fine particulate emissions found in laser toner cartridges.
Question:
Any improvements in remote printer management capabilities?
Answer:
The P7000H provides instant labor-saving remote printer access and control through PrintNet Entrprise ™software. The optional Ethernet adapter and the JAVA based remote management software allow all P7000H printers compatibility with existing workflows.
Question:
How can I remotely manage my printer from another location?
Answer:
PrintNet Enterprise™ software gives you control of your entire global printing network from anywhere you have access to a desktop computer. Designate events and be alerted to printer issues via email, pager or mobile phone alerts.
Question:

Question:
What is the page yield for the P7000H cartridge ribbons?
Answer:
The Standard Life HD cartridge page yield is 18,000 pages and the Extended Life HD cartridge page yield is 34,000 pages.
Question:
What is the page yield for the P5000 Gold Series 30M and P7000HD spool ribbons?
Answer:
P5000 Gold Series 30M Spool Ribbon page yield is 5,000 pages and the P7000H Ultra Capacity Plus HD Spool Ribbon page yield is 17,000 pages.
Question:
Why did you choose a page rating?
Answer:
The page yield enables us to perform accurate comparisons across our products as well as any competitor products. Our research shows that the most likely competition for our printer is a laser printer. By rating in pages, we make it easier for users to compare and see our substantial cost advantage. Additionally, the page test protocol is a much better indicator of real life consumable yields compared with older character based ratings. The difficulty with character yield comparisons is that manufacturers use different tests, settings, applications and environments to produce a character yield. There are no published comparisons of how one manufacturer derived a character yield versus other manufacturers.
