TSC MX240P Series

Drop us a line

The industrial printers of the MX240P Series from TSC stand for extremely fast, high-quality thermal transfer/direct thermal label printing. The 536 MHz processor and 512 MB SDRAM ensure for quick throughput and high speed: with up to 457 mm per second (at 203 dpi) you reliably print labels and tickets up to a width of 114 mm. Thanks to their robust aluminum injection moulding housing, the thermal printers are perfectly suited for incoming/outgoing goods, as well as in production environments for part marking. Depending on the requirements, opt for the version with 203, 300 or 600 dpi – the latter is optimal for printing very small 2D barcodes, graphics and high-resolution images. The printer automatically detects the resolution.

The industrial printers feature an extremely user-friendly 4.3’’color LCD touch panel, as well as six menu keys. The simple Plug-n-Play installation with TSPL-EZ and easy integration (thanks to a large selection of interfaces) make the MX240P Series particularly attractive: among others, Ethernet, RS232 and a USB port are integrated, standard.
