This printer generally accepts ribbons with a core diameter of 1″/25.4 mm. The maximum ribbon length usable in this printer is 984’/300 m. We recommend specific ribbons depending on the type of label you would like to print, as stated on each label’s product page. Please contact our technical support team if you require more information.

No, the Cody-3 contains no DRM technology and can be used with labels from various third-party manufacturers.

This issue can be addressed by decreasing the print speed while incrementally increasing the heat/darkness setting until you get the desired printout. Please contact our technical support team if you require further assistance.

The printer will receive the actual label size when you send a print job to the printer and, thus, does not usually require calibration. However, the printer also has a calibration button if manual calibration should be needed. Please refer to the technical manual to locate the button. Hold the button until the LEDs on the printer start to flash orange to initiate manual calibration.

This kit comes with easy-to-use LabelLive Professional Label Design and Printer Software for businesses, capable of robust database connectivity.

This printer can print various types of thermal-transfer and direct thermal labels and tags. Please contact our technical support team if you require further information on if a specific label can be used with this printer.

Yes, the printer has an opening in the back to allow the feeding of labels from an external source in case you would like to use larger label rolls.

No, this printer does not contain an RFID encoder. Please contact our technical support team if you are looking for a label printer with RFID encoding capabilities.

We do not recommend exceeding 500 printed labels per day with this model. Please contact our technical support team if you need a recommendation for an industrial printer that can print more labels than that daily.
