ACARS printer

[Aerosim Solutions]

Hi all,
I've just installed my ACARS printer, it's a Brightek WH-E19 sourced from Alibaba, (much cheaper than Aviation Megastore). It's just physically installed and not hooked up yet, more soon when I get it going! I will also add the 6mm installation panel to my products list soon. I am going to make another panel which will sink the printer and make it a flush mount. These will be available painted in Boeing grey RAL7011 and standard width 144.5mm. I will also paint the printer in Boeing grey!

Here is the improved installation! I carefully masked up the printer to protect it's internals and the sprayed it with etching primer after a clean with methylated spirits. Two coats of RAL7011 spray paint and then I made a custom painted panel to suit the pedestal and it becomes a Boeing printer. Very pleased with the result and can't wait to see it in action! The custom panel and printer will be added to my website today.

Yes, it is a USB printer and there are a pair of wires to connect to a DC power source.
