3. What media do you run?

Tags and cards up to 0.28 mm thick need the MB241 or MH241; the ML241P takes up to 0.19 mm. The MH241 takes 600 m ribbons; the MB241 and ML241P take 450 m.

Which model for which job

Start from the label you print

Each job below names which of the MB241 Series, MH241 Series and ML241P Series suits it.

Shipping labels (4 × 6 inch)

What does the bigger model add?

What you gain moving between models

ML241P or MB241?

The MB241 prints faster (12 against 8 ips at 203 dpi, 9 against 6 at 300 dpi), takes thicker media (0.28 mm against 0.19 mm), has twice the memory, offers a touch-screen model, and takes rewinder, RFID and linerless kits and a GPIO option. The ML241P is lower (245 mm against 274 mm) and lighter (7.7 kg against 9.1 kg). If it must fit in a rack, choose the ML241P.

MB241 or MH241?

The MH241 prints faster (14 against 12 ips at 203 dpi, 12 against 9 at 300 dpi), comes in 600 dpi, takes 600 m ribbons instead of 450 m, and has 512 MB of flash with a microSD slot up to 32 GB. It also offers a full-roll rewinder (P models), GPIO with parallel as a factory option, and heavy-duty and care-label cutters. The MB241 is smaller and lighter (274 mm and 9.1 kg against 326 mm and 15.60 kg), takes media up to 120 mm wide against 114 mm, and is the one with RFID and linerless kits.

203, 300 or 600 dpi?

The 203 dpi models are the fastest in each series and suit shipping labels. The 300 dpi models print sharper small text and 2D codes. TSC positions 600 dpi, on the MH641 only, for very small 2D barcodes, graphics and fine print. If unsure, send us a sample label.
