Sartorius YDP20-OCE Printer

• Printing weighing data directly from laboratory balances for GLP-compliant record-keeping.
• Generating labels and reports in pharmaceutical research and development environments.
• Documenting sample weights and batch information in quality control laboratories.
• Creating audit trails for analytical processes in biotech facilities.
• Producing hard copies of measurement results for regulatory compliance and archiving.

Printing technology

Typically thermal or impact dot matrix for this class of laboratory printer.

Connectivity

Commonly features serial (RS232) or USB interfaces for connection to balances and PCs.

Power supply

Typically operates on a low-voltage DC power adapter, commonly 12V or 24V, supplied via mains electricity.

Paper type

Designed for use with specific thermal paper rolls or standard paper rolls, depending on the printing technology.

Print speed

For this type of documentation printer, print speed is generally sufficient for on-demand data logging rather than high-volume output.

Footprint

Units of this type are typically compact, designed to sit alongside a laboratory balance on a benchtop.

• What kind of data can this printer typically output?

  This printer is designed to output weighing data, time stamps, dates, and potentially GLP/GMP compliant header information directly from compatible laboratory balances.

• Is this printer compatible with all Sartorius balances?

• Does it come with software or drivers?

• What kind of consumables does it use?

• Can this printer be used with non-Sartorius equipment?

Barcode scanners and printers are valued in laboratory and pharmaceutical environments for improving sample tracking accuracy and reducing manual data entry errors. Buyers typically seek reliable, durable models that integrate well with existing systems. When purchasing used equipment, condition of optical components and print heads matters significantly. Common strengths include long operational lifespans and straightforward maintenance requirements. Compatibility with standard labelling formats and network connectivity are frequently assessed before purchase. Reputable brands tend to hold value well on secondary markets.
