Thermal ticket printer for printing of results. The RS-232 DB9 cable (Cat. 90005510) required for connecting the Ticket Thermal Printer to the instrument is included with the printer. Every operation records the following information: Date (DD/MM/YYYY), Time, Instrument serial number, Plate size (100 or 150 mm), Sample ID, Number of distributions (starting from 1 and increasing sequentially when multiple spiral distributions are performed with the same microsyringe), Plate number (editable, default: Plate1, Plate2…), Spiral mode, and Plate ID. The printer can also generate a test ticket to verify correct operation, as well as print results from volume verification procedures.
