Industrial printers

Industrial printers for long shifts and large label rolls

Industrial label printers take 8-inch label rolls and long ribbons and run all day on shipping, product and compliance labels. Compare the current Zebra, TSC and Godex models below, or tell us your label and volume and we will suggest one.

Choosing between Zebra models? The Zebra industrial printer chooser compares the ZT231, ZT411, ZT421, ZT610 and ZT620 side by side. Comparing brands? See Zebra ZT411 vs TSC MH241 vs Godex ZX1200i, or TSC MB241 vs MH241 vs ML241P.

Which model for which job

Start from the label you need to print

For a production or dispatch line, start from your widest label, your daily volume and your smallest print; RFID jobs are listed too. Each names the models that suit it.

Product, MRP and compliance labels

Small text and 2D codes print more cleanly at 300 dpi; thermal transfer keeps them legible.

Consider: TSC MB241 Series, Zebra ZT231

Very small PCB and component labels for electronics manufacturing services (EMS)

For tiny labels and fine print, choose a model with a 600 dpi version; at 600 dpi the ZT610 prints labels as short as 3 mm in rewind or tear-off mode (Zebra's US tech specs).

Consider: Zebra ZT610, Zebra ZT411, Godex ZX1200i+ Series, TSC MH241 Series

Wide labels up to 6 inches

Drum, pallet and large carton labels need the 6-inch class (up to 168 mm print width).

Consider: Zebra ZT421, Zebra ZT620

RFID tags and labels

To encode RFID labels while printing, choose a model with an RFID option: a UHF RFID encoder or kit on the Zebra and Honeywell models, RFID upgrade kits on the TSC MB241 Series, and an RFID read/write module as a project option on the Godex ZX1200i+ Series.

Consider: Zebra ZT411, Zebra ZT421, Zebra ZT231, Zebra ZT610, Zebra ZT620, Honeywell PM45, TSC MB241 Series, Godex ZX1200i+ Series

Labels wider than 6 inches

Drum, pallet and A4-size labels up to about 8.6 inches (219.5 mm) print width.

Consider: Godex HD830i+

Printing inside your own machine or kiosk

Machine builders fit a print engine, a print mechanism with its own control board, into a kiosk, applicator or packing machine.

Consider: Godex PE200

A compact industrial printer for a smaller space

TSC describes these series as compact industrial printers, for packing tables and smaller work areas.

Consider: TSC ML241P Series, TSC MB241 Series

How to choose

Five questions that decide the printer

For 203, 300 or 600 dpi, ribbon winding and printer languages when replacing an old printer, see our barcode printer buying guide.

How wide is the label?

Most shipping, carton and product labels fit a 4-inch (104 mm) printer. For labels wider than that, look at the 6-inch class: the Zebra ZT421 and ZT620 (up to 168 mm).

How small is the text or barcode?

203 dpi suits shipping and carton labels. 300 dpi prints small text and small 2D codes more cleanly. For very small labels, the table shows which models offer 600 dpi (for example the Zebra ZT411 and ZT610, the TSC MH241 Series and the Godex ZX1200i+ Series).

How many labels a day, and how often can you change the ribbon?

Compare the speeds in the table; each product page lists its ribbon length, and a longer ribbon (450 m or 600 m) means fewer changes on a busy line; the product pages work out labels per hour and per ribbon for a 4 x 6 inch label.

Do you need RFID?

If you tag cartons or assets with UHF RFID, choose a model that offers an RFID encoder. The Zebra ZT231, ZT411, ZT421, ZT610 and ZT620 product pages list RFID options, and so do the Honeywell PM45 page (RFID kit), the TSC MB241 Series page (RFID upgrade kits) and the Godex ZX1200i+ Series page (RFID module as a project option); check the page for the exact kit.

How will it connect?

All the models above connect by Ethernet, USB and serial; some add Wi-Fi or Bluetooth options and USB host ports for a scanner or keyboard. Tell us your ERP, warehouse or labelling software and we will set the printer up with it.

The printer cards below include earlier models that their makers no longer sell; their pages stay for existing users, and the discontinued models guide names each replacement.

It depends on the model, width, resolution, options and quantity. Ask our team for today's competitive price: share your requirement and budget, and we will help you choose the right configuration and send a written quotation with current pricing and delivery time.

Industrial or desktop printer: which do I need?

Industrial printers have metal frames, take 8-inch label rolls and long ribbons, and suit all-day printing on dispatch and production lines. Desktop printers are smaller and take smaller rolls, which suits counters, offices and lower volumes. See our desktop printer range to compare.

Do you supply the labels and ribbons too?

Yes. Allmark supplies barcode labels and thermal transfer ribbons; tell us the printer, label size and material, and we will quote them with the printer.

Can Allmark set it up with our software?

Yes. Allmark provides on-site installation and training, and connects barcode printers to ERP, warehouse and billing software, including our own warehouse management system.
