The UP-D898DC is a compact A6 medical-grade black-and-white digital printer, operating on a 12-24VDC power source from other medical systems. It's designed to be integrated into a wide range of compatible medical imaging environments such as digital ultrasound systems, mobile C-arms, or cardiac catheterization laboratories. The high-quality thermal print engine can produce hard copy prints of still images captured by these systems for use in patient records and referrals. (Please note that images printed from the UP-D898DC are not to be used for diagnosis).
