Seamless integration into production lines
Microplex print solutions based on the Microplex Multi Intelligence Controller MPC provides multible benefits for a seamless integration into intelligent production lines and conveyor systems. The features of the Microplex controller supports your development of defined timings for your application with a real hardware handshake and optional software signals.
- Real programmable electrical signals (GPIO / SPS-Control)
- Fast integration into systems due to flexible programming features
- seamless administration via web interface
- Fast first printed page
Example of integrating a SOLID 50A3-3 laser printer into a robot system for automatic labelling. The printout of individual data (A4) is done in 3 seconds.
Laser- and Thermal printer
For integration into machinery and plant construction Microplex offers a broad variety of print systems based on laser as well as thermal transfer and direct thermal technology. With Microplex it is easy to find the right print system for your application in terms of reliability, print speed, timing, size and cost effective printing.
Multiple configurations are possible
Microplex printer with its multi intelligence controller provides multiple configuration possibilities. Via configuration the printers can be adjusted to nearly any application requirement. More than 30 printer emulationen can be selected. Every emulation can be fine tuned. Besinde software signals via SNMP and Status-Out also electrical signals can be used to control the machiniery and establish a real handshake between printer and system.
- Monitoring and control of the print out via electrical signals with 8 input and 8 output channels (GPIO / SPS-Control)
- Monitoring the printer status via SNMP (Fleetmanagement)
- Individual feedback messages via data channel (Status-Out)
- User friendly configuration via web panel

Individual firmware-adaptation
It might be possible that the Microplex printer „as is“ does not fit your system requirements 100%. Since Microplex has all development resources in house, hardware and software, we can define a suitable modification in cooperation with the system builder in order to match the requirements.
- Individual electriscal signals (GPIO / SPS-Control)
- Hardware modifications of the printers
- Emulation adaptations to fully support the customers print data
- Adaptation of status messages (Status-Out)
