Honeywell PC45

The Honeywell PC45 is Honeywell's 4-inch desktop label printer — the direct successor to the hugely popular PC42 series. It combines a compact footprint with print speeds up to 203 mm/s, easy one-hand media loading, support for both 25.4 mm and 12.7 mm ribbon cores and Honeywell PrintSet configuration tools, making it a strong-value choice for shipping labels, retail price tags, product labelling and light warehouse use.
