Sony UP-X898MD A6 BW Thermal Printer Analaog & Digital
High-speed, high-quality black & white printing of images
The UP-X898MD is a compact A6 monochrome medical printer that accepts both analog video signals and PC-friendly digital USB input signals.
It is designed for integration with a wide range of compatible medical imaging systems, including mobile C-arms, cardiac catheterization labs, and digital ultrasound systems. The high-quality thermal print engine can produce printouts of still images from such systems for use in patient records and referrals. For added convenience, printed photos can also be saved to a connected USB flash drive.
(Note that images printed by the UP-X898MD cannot be used for diagnostic purposes.)
The UP-X898MD is a successor to Sony's popular UP-897 series of medical printers. This redesigned and updated version now offers numerous operational enhancements and improved ergonomics while maintaining a compact design and easy integration into medical trolleys. Ease of use has been further enhanced with a larger LCD display and a joystick for intuitive menu navigation.
The device is capable of producing high-quality black and white prints in under 2 seconds. Advanced thermal printing technology ensures near-photo quality while working with widely available media.
