Industry's First Piezo Ink Jet Printer for Continuous Forms

With the implementation of Piezo ink jet technology in the new T3016 industrial ink jet printer, TallyGenicom revolutionizes the world of bar code, labels and forms printing. At 2000 CPS (characters per second), the equivalent of 600 lines per minute or 16 pages per minute, the Tally T3016 delivers the speed of a line matrix printer for the price of a serial matrix printer.

The T3016 represents a true breakthrough in continuous forms printing. For the first time, laser quality and quiet operation are joined with high speed, high reliability and paper handling versatility. This is the result of combining leading-edge Piezo ink jet technology with a proven Tally industrial-strength printing platform.

High Speed and Low-Cost Operation a Winning Combination

With overall throughput of 1000 pages per hour, the T3016 is up to three times faster than comparably priced impact printers. Engineered for industrial use, the Tally T3016 handles workloads of up to 60,000 pages per month at an economical cost.

Piezo Inkjet Technology

Ink is packaged in easy-to-replace 40 million-character ink cartridges. TallyGenicom's proprietary oil-based ink produces dark, high-quality images which dry to permanence in less than one second. The industrial-strength Piezo printhead has a 3 billion-character life for long-term, reliable operation.

Fully Featured

The Tally T3016 printer boasts multiple input paper paths, 360 DPI print resolution and extremely quiet 49 dB(A) operation. It supports Epson LQ2550, Epson LQ2170 and IBM Proprinter XL24e emulations, and the availability of Ethernet 10/100BaseT connectivity enables high-speed performance in demanding network environments.

Superior Forms Versatility

Many applications require forms flexibility, such as loading a label on one tractor and a report form or single part invoice on another. The T3016 features a front input tractor and single sheet insertion as standard, and a second front tractor as an option. A straight paper path on both tractors enables printing on a wide range of media from recycled paper to heavy stock. Later this year, the T3016 will offer a third rear tractor for even greater versatility. A dual-bin sheet feeder is currently available with a combined input capacity of approximately 400 sheets, as well as a paper cutter with a 1 million cut life. Key applications include printing of bar codes, labels, waybills, invoices, airline tickets or retail tags.
