Custom FT190II Panel Printer **DISCONTINUED**

UPDATE: May 2022 - Custom have announced the end of life (eol) of the FT190 range of thermal panel printers. There are currently no directly equivalent products from other manufacturers with this form factor. Please contact us to discuss your requirements so that we might offer assistance with your redesign to accommodate an alternative device.

The Custom FT190II is similar to their FH190 Impact Panel Printer but with a modern, thermal printer mechanism instead. This makes it an ideal fit for upgrading legacy FH190 applications to benefit from the advantages of silent, high speed, high reliability printing.
