TX Series 4-Inch Performance Desktop Printers
The TX Series of thermal transfer desktop barcode printers can support a variety of printing applications to meet your needs. With three models available, the 4-inch wide TX Series can address everything from higher volume 4×6 shipping labels, higher resolution product marking and graphic solutions, to high-resolution labels used in electronics marking applications.
The TX series is the culmination of TSC’s 23 years of designing high-performance and durable desktop printers. The printers use a large 300-meter ribbon supply on a one-inch core that saves both time and money. The TX Series features a user-friendly spring-loaded centre-biased clamshell design for easy drop-in media loading of 5-inch rolls of media. The printer construction features a rugged double-wall design that is stronger and more durable than other thermal transfer mechanisms on the market. Its strong motor is powerful enough to handle a 300-meter long ribbon.
Standard interfaces include USB 2.0, USB-A Host, 10/100 Mbps Ethernet and Serial connectivity. Optional communications interfaces include Bluetooth, 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi and Centronics Parallel. Printer options include a bright, colour LCD display, label peel and present, and cutter.
As with all TSC printers, the TX Series features the TSPL-EZ printer-control language, which is fully compatible with other TSC printer languages, while supporting TPLE (Translation Printer Language Eltron®) and TPLZ (Translation Printer Language Zebra®). The languages automatically decipher and translate the format of each label as it is sent to the printer. TSPL-EZ also features internal scalable True Type fonts (based on the Monotype® font engine), which are typically found only in more expensive printers.
