ML Series Printers: Compact and Quiet

If your physical space is limited, consider the small but mighty ML Series 4-inch performance industrial printers.

ML Series printers are up to 34% smaller than our other printers, and these conveniently compact options still achieve up to a 300 dpi resolution. ML Series printers also feature reduced noise due to their purposeful design and printing algorithms.

ML Series printers are best for businesses that would rather focus on operations instead of maintenance. They feature self-diagnostic capabilities and real-time detection and response to errors so you can save money and resources on reprinting. With tool-free maintenance, ML Series printers are easy to manage and depend on.

MB Series Printers: Durable Design with Easy-to-Use Interface

Businesses looking to scale their operations and add to their existing fleet of TSC industrial printers will benefit from the MB Series 4-inch compact light industrial printers.

Like the ML Series printers, these printers are smaller and more compact, but their all-metal design and die-cast aluminum print mechanism make them a more durable option that can be used in demanding production environments such as extreme temperatures.

Users also benefit from an easy-to-use 3.5-inch color touch LCD panel featuring one-click operations and customizable menus. The printers also feature faster processors and updated firmware, making them an ideal next step for expanding your technology.

MX Series Printers: Around-the-Clock Performance

Faster, better, stronger. This is the performance you can expect when bringing MX Series 4-inch performance industrial printers into your business. These printers can achieve 600 dpi resolution and reach print speeds of up to 18 inches per second for 24/7 high-volume use.

Like the MB Series printers, they can withstand tough conditions. MX Series printers are also great for printing small 2D graphics, fine print, and other ultra-high-resolution print needs.

In addition, users can remotely manage these printers and monitor their performance to avoid downtime.

MH Series Printers: Precision, Speed, and Flexibility

MH Series industrial printers combine many of the best features from other industrial printers with additional options for either 4-inch or 6-inch label printers. They offer premium printhead technology, a fast processor, and high memory capacity to support their maximum resolution of 600 dpi and print speeds of up to 14 inches per second.

With their fast speeds and excellent resolution, these printers are great for high-output environments. They also feature real-time detection of print issues and remote printer management capabilities.

MH printers can also support various media lengths and widths, achieve a peeling off minimum of 0.5-inch labels in length, and avoid ribbon wrinkles for overall better print quality.

TTP Series Printers: Support for High-Quality, Wide-Format Labels

Like MH Series printers, TTP Series performance industrial printers also offer two options: 6-inch and 8-inch. They have the best print quality of any TSC wide label printers, making them the best option for wide label printing needs.

TTP Series printers can print thermal transfer and direct thermal labels, and they offer a memory card reader allowing you to store up to 32 GB more memory to support multiple fonts and graphics. They achieve up to 300 dpi resolution and speeds of up to 12-inches per second while also supporting multiple print languages and IT environments that your organization might depend on.
