cab A+ Series — Compatible Labels & Ribbons
The cab A+ series is a German-built industrial label printer line spanning 2-inch to 8-inch print widths in one chassis family. All A+ models take large 205 mm rolls on 1.5-inch or 3-inch cores and accept ribbon wound ink-side out or in, so they are unusually flexible about which thermal transfer ribbon you buy. The A6+ and A8+ are true wide-web machines taking media up to 180 mm and 235 mm respectively.
