New IDXPERT Version II: Now better than ever!
Here is the upgrade that you have all been waiting for! We are proud to announce the launch of the new and improved IDXPERT Version II with some brand new and enhanced features to make it a more versatile and better machine that meets the demands of our customers.
Features and benefits
Whilst developing IDXPERT™ Version II, we consulted with customers in MRO and Datacom & Telecom markets, which are the markets where we have had most success in selling IDXPERT™. They told us that they wanted the following improvements to be made:
The IDXPERT™ Version II can now be connected to a PC running our LabelMark™ software. The printer is supplied with a USB cable (no longer a serial connection), which means that it has been brought up-to-date with the demands of PC users. Customers can now design more complex labels than ever before and even enjoy the benefits such as reduced errors by importing data directly from external data sources onto labels.
There are 10 new font sizes in total for the new IDXPERT™. This brings the total number of font sizes to 21 giving customers more flexibility such as being able to put more information on labels.
This was something many customers asked for. No more surprises ! You can tell how much power you have left in your printer before it stops working.
- More bar-coding formatting options
Now you have the option of both Code 39 and 128 barcodes. We have also introduced several new barcode formatting options such as the option to chance bar width and also to change the font size of the human readable text.
- A way to print formatted strips for face plates and patch panels
These have traditionally been difficult labels to produce due to the grid lines required on them. Not any more! The new firmware on the IDXPERT™ Version II prints them directly onto the label, which gives a superb finished label - just what any installer would want!
Now you can produce small health & safety signs with much more impact. Simply create one zone for the image, and another zone for the text. By doing this you maximise the space available to ensure a clear and legible label is produced.
Applications / Target Markets / Positioning / Product Strategy
The new IDXPERT™ is a true “all rounder”. In principle, applications and target markets of the do IDXPERT™ Version II do not differ from the previous version (wire and cable marking, production of small health & safety signs, barcode and asset labels, datacom and telecom labelling for specific applications such as outlet, patch panel, and faceplate marking.)
Now with the new feature of PC connectivity, users can do more with their IDXPERT™ such as include logos on labels, print more complex serialised labels (for cable marking for example), and import data from other data sources such as spreadsheets and databases.
This printer is one of our lower volume printers, aimed at users who might want to print about 250 labels per day. It is priced above the ID PAL™, but below the TLS2200™ and the TLS PC Link™. With the addition of PC functionality, we have something to offer customers who are still using older dot matrix technology with printers like the LS2000 and BMXC+.
