Introduction
Thank you for choosing the Kroy K2500 printer. Your new printer was
designed with your needs in mind, and offers many features to make
your work easier.
The printer provides features that are usually available only in larger
printers, yet it is small enough to hold comfortably in one hand. You can
use standard nickel-cadmium batteries for portability or an optional AC
power supply. Memory backup is provided by a lithium battery.
You can enter text easily using the keypad, and the special function keys
let you perform standard procedures quickly and easily. In just seconds
you can produce labels that include bolded, italicized, underlined,
mirrored and even framed text.
The K2500 lets you print labels in different widths and in either horizontal
or vertical orientations. The printer also contains a real-time clock and
ten of the most commonly used sets of bar codes.
You can also externally create labels and print them via an RS-232
connection. For more information about this feature, see
Communication Protocol or contact your authorized Kroy distributor.
