Epson PLQ-30-printer for printing on strict reporting forms with auto-leveling function

The Epson PLQ-30 24-needle dot matrix printer was designed to work with strict reporting forms : passports, visas, bank account books, disability certificates, diplomas and certificates. The special functions of this unique printer ensure that the text is accurately placed in the BSO columns assigned to it.

Media format

Epson PLQ-30 is designed for printing on various documents in the format >A4 (94 columns). You can use it to fill out forms with a thickness of 0.065 to 2,600 mm, including multi-page forms (up to 7 pages). The printer can easily handle printing on bank books and passports, which have different thicknesses to the right and left of the place where the sheets are sewn, when they are not open in the middle. It should be especially noted that the printer supports printing on documents where the fields to fill in are located as close as possible to the edge of the form (margins from 3.1 mm), so you can use it to fill out the new standard hospital sheets.

Media Feed

The forms are fed from the front side of the printer, while the operator does not need to monitor their strictly horizontal position. The printer will automatically detect the borders of the document and align it before printing. At the end of the work, the Epson PLQ-30 also issues the document from the front side or stretches it back. In the second case, it will be convenient to use an optional set for a compact location of the printer, which includes a guide for easy delivery of the form.

Printing process

The Epson PLQ-30 automatically tracks changes in the thickness of the media during printing and thanks to the movable print head adjusts the impact force of the needles in such a way as to achieve a clear, neat, evenly bright text print. The printer’s print speed is 520 cps (12 cpi, HSDraft). The maximum possible speed is realized in the high-speed mode of 585 cps (12 cpi, UHSDraft).
