The Intermec EasyCoder 3240 is a high-resolution barcode label printer designed for precision printing of small labels and complex images on specialized substrates. Operating at 406 dpi (16 dots/mm), this printer delivers exceptional image registration on labels as small as 0.1 inch through Intermec’s PrecisionPrint technology. The system supports both direct thermal and thermal transfer printing methods, accommodating roll-fed, die-cut, continuous form, and fanfold media up to 2.5 inches (64 mm) wide. Print speed reaches 4 inches per second (ips) with monochrome output. Digital thermal compensation ensures consistent print quality even for rotated barcodes, while substrate compatibility extends to difficult materials including Kapton, ultra-smooth polyesters, and synthetics.
