PLC-based printer applicator sends status texts to operators, supervisors The 6950 programmable logic controller-based label printer-applicator has been configured to send text messages to operators’ and supervisors’ when labels are low or if the printer needs attention. The machine offers an Allen-Bradley PLC control system, modular print engine and 4.3-inch diagonal full color user interface.
