This versatile 5-color, 24-in. wide-format printer enables office, retail, and school employees to easily and cost-effectively output technical drawings, maps, charts, architectural renderings, safety signage, event posters, courtroom graphics, and sale signs.  With a revised magenta ink and updated image processing system, the TM-250 makes prints with vivid color and bold reds even on plain paper.  Designed for use in confined spaces, the printer has features to make it easy for beginning users to load paper rolls, calibrate colors, create professional-looking posters, and track the usage and cost of consumables. The new LCOA-II processor makes the TM-series printer about 30% faster than its predecessors. The stackable catch basket enables users to collect stacks of prints automatically cut from the roll. The TM-250 is ENERGY STAR certified for energy-efficiency and registered as an EPEAT GOLD product by a council that assesses the environmental attributes of imaging equipment.
