S4M vs. DATAMAX I-
Class
• S4M is easy to integrate
in existing applications
as it operates in APL-D,
as well as ZPL, APL-I
and EPL.
• The S4M printer’s front
control panel features a
streamlined menu for
simple navigation, while
its proven side-loading
design eliminates label
and ribbon threading for
quick, easy loading
• Both the I-Class and the
S4M printer offer a large
selection of connectivity
options, including
internal Ethernet and
wireless.
• The footprint of the S4M
printer is small enough
to be a good fit for
certain space
constrained
environments such as
mobile carts.
• The I-Class offers
greater application
flexibility with regard to
Media handling,
supporting options such
as linear take-up, full
media rewind and cutter
• When compared with
the I-Class, the
performance, features,
and price make the S4M
printer an outstanding
value.
• The Z4Mplus is well
suited to compete
against the I-class, but
the S4M printer is ideal
when budget is tight.
