Epson LABELWRITER SE450 - Manual (Page 7)

Introduction
The LabelWriter SE450 printer is a compact, thermal-transfer label printer. Featuring both
RS-232 serial and USB connections and including both an ASCII command set as well as
raster printing modes, this printer can fit a wide variety of uses.
The LabelWriter SE450 printer can be readily connected to most common computer systems
using the included Windows, Mac or Linux drivers. Or, for driver-less applications, the
printer can be connected and driven entirely by ASCII Escape commands. This makes the

devices, paint matching systems, and so on.
The LabelWriter SE450 printer can accept label material up to 62 mm (2.44") wide, and has
a 57 mm (2.24") wide, 203 dot-per-inch (dpi) print head.
