Description The Argox CP-2240 OS is a proven desktop workhorse for everyday barcode and logistics labels. Supporting both Direct Thermal (DT) and Thermal Transfer (TT) modes, it delivers reliable 203 dpi output for GS1 barcodes, waybills and compliance tags—without slowing your line. A wide, easy-load media bay and twin-sensor system (gap/black-mark) ensure accurate detection across diverse stocks, while tool-free printhead and platen-roller removal keeps maintenance quick and simple. Key Features Speed & Quality: 203 dpi at up to 7 ips for sharp, scannable labels. 4″ Engine: ≈104 mm max print width; up to 2 540 mm (100″) length. DT & TT Printing: Swap easily between ribbon jobs and ribbon-free runs. Big Media Capacity: 6″ internal roll plus 300 m ribbons (ink-in or ink-out) to reduce changeovers. Twin Sensors: Movable reflective (black-mark) fixed transmissive (gap) for reliable tracking. Easy Service: Tool-free printhead & platen-roller removal. Connectivity: USB, RS-232 & Parallel for plug-and-play deployment. Fleet-Friendly: Argox language emulations simplify migration from legacy printers. Why Choose the Argox CP-2240 OS? Designed for higher-throughput sites, the Argox CP-2240 OS keeps label production moving with up to 7 ips sustained speed and consistent 203 dpi clarity—ideal for GS1 shipping labels, pallet IDs, and compliance tags that must scan first time. The generous media path accepts a 6″ internal roll, while support for 300 m ribbons in both ink-in and ink-out orientations extends run time and fits existing supplies policies. Setup and swaps are fast. The wide, easy-load bay streamlines threading; the movable reflective sensor and fixed transmissive gap sensor ensure precise sensing across gaps, notches, and black-mark stocks. When maintenance is due, tool-free removal of the printhead and platen roller shortens downtime, helping lines recover quickly. Integration is straightforward in mixed fleets. Standard USB, Serial (RS-232) and Parallel ports make drop-in replacement simple, while Argox emulation support helps preserve existing label templates and host calls—reducing re-engineering effort during rollouts. With a typical maximum print width of ≈104 mm and lengths up to 2 540 mm, the CP-2240 OS covers everyday courier labels, long compliance strips, and archive identifiers with ease. Suited Environments & Applications Environment Typical Uses Retail & E-commerce Courier/shipping labels, returns, shelf & price tags Warehousing & 3PL Bin/rack IDs, put-away, picking & pallet labels Manufacturing WIP tracking, product ID & compliance labels Healthcare & Labs Asset/specimen labels (with suitable media) Postal & Admin Waybills, routing and archive labels Technical Highlights Print Methods Direct Thermal (DT) / Thermal Transfer (TT) Resolution 203 dpi Max Speed Up to 7 inches per second Max Print Width ≈ 104 mm (4.1″) Max Print Length Up to 2 540 mm (100″) Media Capacity Internal roll up to 6″ Ribbon Support 300 m ribbons, ink-in or ink-out Sensors Twin: movable reflective (black-mark) fixed transmissive (gap) Interfaces USB, RS-232 Serial, Parallel Compatibility Argox language emulations for legacy migration Additional Information Mode selection: Use DT for short-life courier labels; switch to TT for durable, long-term IDs. Uptime tips: Leverage 300 m ribbons and 6″ rolls to reduce mid-shift changeovers. Sensor setup: Position the reflective sensor for black-mark stocks; use gap sensing for die-cut labels. Maintenance: Clean the printhead/platen at each change; tool-free parts access speeds service. Migration: Keep existing templates by using emulation profiles during deployment.
