Desktop Printers

Product profile

Designed to set a new standard in IT 

friendliness, the Intermec PF8 provides 

a compact, easy-to-use bar code 

printing solution that dramatically 

simplifies deployment and support.   Its 

quiet, reliable operation and intuitive 

design make the PF8 the right fit for 

light duty labeling applications in 

transportation/ courier, healthcare, 

in-store retail and office environments. 

 

Easy to Deploy 

Available in thermal transfer (PF8t) and 

direct thermal (PF8d) print technology 

models, the PF8 is packed with features 

that simplify deployment and reduce the 

need for IT support.  In particular, the PF8 

now includes Intermec PrintSet, a robust 

configuration tool that has long proven its 

value across the Intermec industrial printer 

line.  PrintSet provides an easy tool for 

configuring printer and network settings, 

downloading fonts and graphics, and 

upgrading firmware, saving time for both 

set-up and ongoing maintenance.  

The PF8 printers include flexible, industry 

standard connectivity - including parallel, 

serial, USB and optional internal Ethernet 

– enabling easy,  drop-in installation 

in networked environments.  With 

their compact size, common media 

specifications, and ESIM printer language, 

the PF8 printers provide an easy migration 

path from legacy Intermec printers such 

as the PC4, as well as from other desktop 

printers using the EPL printer language. 

The PF8’s off-the-shelf compatibility and 

certifications with a wide range of business 

and healthcare software applications 

enables users to be up and running 

quickly, requiring minimal IT support.

Easy to Use

Ideal for customers who are new to label 

printing or who are making the switch 

from laser or inkjet printers, the easy-

to-use PF8 reduces training needs and 

trouble tickets. Its double-wall  clamshell 

construction is durable and makes 

media loading (and reloading) intuitive 

and virtually trouble-free.   Users can 

depend on the PF8 to consistently deliver 

reliable, high quality bar code output. 

 

The PF8t thermal transfer printer 

provides two options:  a one-inch or a 

half-inch ribbon core. The one-inch core 

accommodates a larger ribbon roll (up 

to 900 feet), which reduces the need 

for frequent replacements, minimizes 

downtime and enables ribbons to be shared 

with industrial printers. The half-inch core 

also holds a very large ribbon roll (300 feet).

The Right Fit

With their small footprint and near-silent 

operation, the PF8 printers are perfect 

for space-constrained environments and 

settings such as patient areas and offices.  

The PF8 printers are the right fit for a wide 

range of applications, including patient 

wristband and prescription labeling, shelf 

and shipping labels, asset labeling, and 

almost any busy place where users need 

reliable, easy-to-use bar code printers.
